Re: Post your daily exercise routine
You were right about things getting busy around here Surfermom....
What with dress rehearsals and practice sessions down the church, and drivers needed to do errands at all hours of the day.....
...It's like being thrown off a roundabout.....So although I've not had time to post much, I've not neglected my running...
...But you all knew I wouldn't didn't you....
Good to hear about all the activity taking place on this thread, and well done to everyone. And a big 'WELL DONE' to Surfermom helping those turtles to run the gauntlet into the sea.....
Some mornings I actually stop to fuss a friendly black and white cat that refuses to let me past without a stroke....Soft sod that I am.....
Anyway, as the title of this thread suggests, it's about what exercise we did today, so here goes.......
After running a sweat soaked five yesterday morning in 20*C and 40% humidity (very tough but soooooooo enjoyable) I lined up this morning for a similar sweat soaked five, hoping I'd recovered enough from yesterday to at least stay upright all the way round. It seemed so much warmer than yesterday and the last mile was a lesson in survival under the hot sun....
I did survive, and collapsed against the bungalow wall half naked.....The tee shirt was removed on that last mile down the lane to improve aerodynamics....something like that anyway.....It was as I glanced at the temperature gauge which revealed 23*C and 52% humidity that I began to understand why the run had been so tough.
But the biggest surprise was as I filled out me journal and discovered that it was my fastest five miles this year!.......
I'll try and find a few quiet moments to look in on the forum during this weekend of festivities, but if I don't, I'll be back soon.....
Keep up the good work.....And that big needle penetrating those knees Tachyon had me squirming a bit.....Ouch....
PS:- That big surfboard would make a good floor for my shed.....
