Weigh In Day & Running Totals for 13 Jul 09 & 14 Jul 09
Well this is going to be very brief since I don't know how long my Internet will stay connected. So yesterday I ran 12 miles, burned 2,228 calories, and I ran for 123 minutes. Today I ran a recovery run of 7 miles, burned 1,299 calories, and I ran for 74 minutes. Today's run hurt! There is something going on with my right lower leg. It's maybe a shin splint or I could of stressed the muscles in my leg but it's not happy with me at the moment. I think I will cut the mileage back a little bit this week and give my legs a break. I was too tired to hit the gym today because I didn't get much sleep yesterday because I had to get a haircut. So I hopefully will hit the gym tomorrow with a little more energy. Yesterday was weigh day and I weighed in at 245 lbs. So that brings my total weight loss to 37 lbs. since I arrived here back in April. I am happy with the progress I just hope that it continues. I would like to be in the 220's by the time I leave here at the end of August. That would be very nice. I hope everyone is doing good and that your summer is enjoyable. I love and miss you all, Until next time...

Mom sent your shin splint brace Friday so you should be getting it soon. I did not run last week. On Saturday I rode my bike for 50.2miles which took 3h50m and burned 2386 calories. I think it was a good break from running, with the marathons I have ran this year. I ran yesterday for 3 miles which took 35m and burned 527 calories. I was susposed to run the Timp.50k with Doc. but he said he hadn't trained enough for it. We rescheduled for the fall. If he doesn't do it this time I will run it by myself. I didn't lose any weight last week but I didn't gain any either. That was good with being on vacation. I will try another 31 mile week before moving up to 32 miles for awhile. You take care. love ya dad just run!
I think it would probably do me a lot of good to take a week off from running but I figure I can take the week off that I travel back home. It should be close to a week of travel time to get back to Oki the first week in Sept. I should be out of here either the
31st of Aug or early 01 or 02 Sep. So at least it feels like it will be over soon. I hope you are getting over your alergies enough to work out. I am sure it just wipes you out and kills your motivation. Thank you for sending my shin thingy. I really hope that helps with my situation. I would hate to take time off from it. I think that would slow time down for me. Take care and as always I love hearing from you guys on here. Let Grandma and Grandpa know I got their letter and I will write soon.
Love, Brandon
