Day 165, 200 To Go

June 14, 2013

It is Friday and time for the weekend!  It is not just any weekend, it is Father's Day weekend.  This should mean that I will be pampered and massaged and waited on hand and foot, but most likely will mean I will get stuck being with the kids.  I mean, seriously, who wants to spend the day delegated to celebrating fathers with their kids!  If anything can ruin a relaxing weekend is spending it with children.'

I'll let you know how it goes.

For tonight, Honey and I will be going out for dinner and a movie.  Although this is potentially a fun night, due to our wildly different tastes in food (I like most foods, Honey likes Sushi...that's about it) and movies (I like everything, especially movies with explosions, nudity, black comedy, car chases, deep philosophical meaning, or any combination of the above and Honey likes chick flicks).

So, we chose a Thai/Sushi place that promised to have both good sushi and Thai food which I love and rarely get to eat.  Unfortunately, it just plain sucked.  Thai Thai was the name, and it should have been called Sucks Sucks.  First of all, they got Honey's order wrong.  She is very specific in what she orders.  She always orders Salmon rolls with JUST Salmon and the rice on the outside.  It is like a reverse roll.  They did it the normal way.  I ordered Pad Thai, and it looked like a plate of oily noodles.  It had a slight peanuty flavor and that is about as close as it came to tasting like Thai food.  I also asked for extra spicy, and it wasn't even close.  In fact, it was mild enough to feed a baby.

So, we left the dinner rather unsatisfied, although somewhat full (we ate almost everything..hey, food ain't free ya know!) and we made it in time to see This is the End.  I have to say, I found the comedy quite dark and hilarious.  Honey, was not amused at all.  In fact, she said it was the worst movie she had ever seen.  The majority or critics agree with me, so who are you going to believe?  I guess I would be able to see her point about it being horrible, but I have a sense of humor...a particularly dirty sense of humor.

Anyway, I think I am forgetting something...oh yes, my run.  Here are my numbers:

Time: 20:00

Distance: 2.37 miles

Pace: 8:27/m

Max Pace: 7:27/m

Calories: 305
Avg HR: 136

Max HR: 152

Another nice run for the week.  It was a little faster than the past two days, but in line with what I have been averaging. 

I got home late from the movie and hung out even later with Honey...time to go to bed as it is already 2:30am.  Tomorrow is going to be a long day.  Later!

Run for Life!!
