Running Totals for 21 Jul 09

Well here we are with 38 days to go until my replacement shows up and I am a little antsy at the moment. I think I will be for the rest of my time I have here. The rest of the time is imperative for me to buckle down and focus on my running or I will go crazy counting down the rest of my days here. If you cannot tell I am starting to get excited about leaving Afghanistan and July can't get over with quick enough. My run today was a little tough since it was a recovery run from yesterday's longer run. But then again my Tuesday runs are always that way. Today I ran 6.4 miles, burned 1,159 calories, and I ran for 65 minutes. I actually wanted to do 7 miles today BUT there was a ton of people in the gym this morning and the treadmill vultures were out in force. We are in the middle of a deployment switch but I think it will be packed from here on out until I leave. I will make it work and get my runs in one way or another. I hope everyone is ready for another week. Until next time...

I am glad that your down to 38 days. Hopefully the running will help the days go by faster. My running is going ok, even tough I only got in 26.5 miles last week and no biking. I need to pick my mileage back up. Yesterday I ran for 6.04 miles in 65 minutes and burned 1085 calories. It was a little faster pace for me. I need to get my normal training pace back to 10 minute miles all the time. I gained 2 lbs. last week so I need to start writing everything I eat down because I am eating more than I think I am. Keep up the training. love ya dad

I wish I could be better about a food journal. But I lack the motivation to keep one. I should figure it out though because I think I would burn more body fat if I could keep an eye on what goes in my mouth!!

Love ya
