Running Totals for 07 Aug 09
Well today I started running in my new pair of shoes that felt pretty good for a first time run. I didn't even worry about blisters with these new shoes either. I have had the same pair in the past but this time I got them 1/2 size bigger and it makes all the difference. My right leg is still giving me fits but I think it will until I can give it some prolonged rest. That probably won't happen until my flight home. I just need to take it easy so I don't hurt myself which I am aware of. Today I ran 6.32 miles, burned 1,134 calories, and I ran for 65 minutes. I am glad that I felt good enough to run the entire time also. I don't like having to walk during my "runs". I hope everyone is doing good. Until next time...

Hey Bro Happy belated Anniversary. Glad to hear the new shoes are working for you. Dad always says how important good shoes are. Me and Em are still at it with the working out. Im still not perfect with it but I am plugging along. So what day are you scheduled to fly out of that place? I hope time passes quickly for you. I am on shift eating my microwavable breakfast wishing it was an IHOP or Village Inn breakfast but it just don't cut it. Have a great day and stay safe. Love ya, Bill
Hey Just Hobble, what's up. I am glad that the new shoes are working. I have bought the same shoe in a new model and they didn't fit the same as the old ones. The shoe company New Balance is the closest to having there new model being the same fit as the old models. I just love the 1220 series. They are a top of the line stabiltiy shoe that holds up under my pounding very well. They list for like $140.00 but I get them from Holabird Sports as they bring in the new models and close out the old. I will probably buy another pair today as they have them for $82.95 with free shipping. The close outs are the 1224's and the new one coming in are the 1225's which I will buy new year. That will give me 4 1/2 pairs of fairly new shoes which should last me for quite awhile. Thursday I ran 6.04 miles in 1h08m and burned 1073 calories. I finally weighed 119 lbs. today and I am very happy finally being out of the 220's. Sorry about this book. love ya dad
Hey Brother, it's good to hear from you. Things here are going good, just getting a little anxious to get out of here. I leave towards the end of the month (I hope) but you never know with rotator dates. All you can do is hope things work out and you leave when you are supposed to. I think it is great that you and Em are exercising. Finding time to do it is always hit or miss but as long as you keep that motivation to get even a small workout in is the key. Even 15 minutes a day is better than nothing. Sorry about the crappy food. I have been dealing with that for the last four months!! You take care and let the family know I'm thinking of them. Love ya.
Dad, I know what you mean about finding a decent pair of shoes and sticking with them. The bad part is not being able to try them on when you order on line. But I think from now on if I order a 1/2 size bigger than I normally do I think I should still be fine. I really like the pair I have right now. So I just need to keep ordering these until they go extinct. I am glad that you busted that 220 egg. Keep it up!! Love ya.
