Ran 10 miles yesterday. I couldn't bring myself to run on a treadmill for that long, so I ventured outside. It was a rough run - felt like trail running - the snow made each step slightly unbalanced. It was a beautiful sunny day, but a little slushy, with a cold wind.
My legs are still sore from the plyometrics of Thursday night. After running 10 I was hurting yesterday. Actually felt a little faint at one point when I stood up a few minutes later after running. I didn't eat any lunch, which may have been the cause. Or I have some undiagnosed heart problem? I'm a total hypochondriac.
This morning I got up and road my trainer for 75 minutes. 95% effort during commercials, 65% effort during the 'show'. The boys and I found some action movie on AMC that we agreed on, anything other than Spongebob or ICarly. That AMC channel has some long commercial breaks - thought I'd faint and fall off the bike before they'd end.
I'm planning to put some time in the water this afternoon. Then later I'm going to force myself to be a proper American father, sit down on the couch with soft drinks, popcorn, maybe some other cheesy-meaty appetizer, and watch football with my children.
