Day 82, 283 To Go

March 23, 2013

I feel good today.  I am fairly confident my days of sickness are behind me.  That's not to say that I am full of energy and ready to run a long way, but I am pretty sure I can take on my day 2 of running 20 minutes for the week.

Today was a day to relax though.  So, I decided to get my taxes together.  Not that I was going to actually do my taxes myself.  Hell no.  I want no part of that mess.  I just got all my receipts and deductions and brought my tax ignorant ass over to H&R Block.  I had intended to go to a place called Liberty Tax, but when I go there and saw the balloons and the flashing lights and all the other cheesy crap to go along with it, I changed my mind.  Taxes are not meant to be flashy or gimmicky.  I wanted someone who knew what he/she was doing.

I am happy to say, it all worked out.

Granted, it took a while, but when I got home, it was time for my run.

Here are my numbers:

Time: 20:00
Distance: 2.21 miles
Pace: 9:03/m
Max Pace: 8:09/m
Calories: 285
Avg HR: 131
Max HR: 142

Running 20 minutes is going to push up my mileage, on good days, to over 2 miles which is cool.  Finally, I will start to compile some decent mileage every week.  On the other hand, my legs are going to feel it too...particularly my feet.  They already are.  I think that has more to do with my sick running this week.  My body was weak, and I think that didn't help out my running form.  Time will tell...

Run for Life!
