Day 231, 134 To Go

August 19, 2013

Happy Monday everyone!  Yes, I am trying to be positive this Monday.  Part of the reason is I only have one more Monday left before I go on vacation and part of the reason is I just think I should stop bitching.  I have a job.  I should be happy.

I can tell you, though, I am super tired.  Not only did I do a hard day of working out yesterday, I had to get up extra early today because today is Derek's first day of school.  It is only Pre-K, but for him (and Honey) it is a monumental day!  He is so excited to be going to school today.  Little does he know he has decades of school ahead of him before he is done (assuming he goes to college and then gets his Masters and PhD...and he better!)  For now, at least, he is excited.  The little monster wakes up immediately, unlike me who takes multiple snoozes and a bucket of water on my head to get me going.

See how happy he is!  See how much I need a haircut too?  What do I think I am, a hippy?  Mind as well quit work, get a van, buy a guitar and smoke weed all day with hair like that.  I hate pictures of myself.  Anyway, Derek looks cute at least.

First day of school or not, I still had to run.  Honey came with me too.  Between the two of us, we could barely break a sweat we were going so slow.  Here are our numbers:

Time: 25:00

Distance: 2.01 miles

Pace: 12:26/m

Max Pace: 10:45/m

Calories: 169
Avg HR: 101

Max HR: 115

As long as we go at least 2 miles on a 25 minute run, I'm happy.  Tomorrow will be better as I will be rested a bit and hopefully my legs will comply with my wishes.  Maybe.

Run for Life!!
