Day 306
The run went well. The swim went well. I realize I start each day's blog entry with this but it's important to understand that this is such a major accomplishment for me and I don't take it for granted. For 306 stays of walking and then jogging every day without an injury or sickness is something very special and I don't take if for granted.
This morning I was earlier than usual as I didn't sleep very well and got up at 2 AM, got dressed and was out the door by 2:15 after the daily stretching and counter push ups. It was very foggy and a little cold, so I wore my gloves. For whatever reason, when it's cold, my hands get numb but I still wear shorts and a t-shirt and it doesn't seem to bother me and after I finish, I am in a sweat regardless of the temperature outside...go figure.
I'm loving the new gym and I was surprised that at 3:30 AM there was another guy in the pool but he didn't last long. I did my 500 meters, showered and was home by 4.
Day 306 was a Sunday and as I said I would, I returned to the swap meet at the Sports Arena to buy some more hats. I end up getting three. One for $3 and the other two for $5. And these are quality made hats. I also got some super glue, some chili cashews, a dozen hot mini-donuts, and a new sprinkler for my hose outside.
I then walked around a lot and finally went to the Hillcrest Theater to see the Melissa McCarthy movie, Can You Ever Forgive Me. I used my Movie Pass, one of the few movies that was available, and I have to admit, there was nothing wrong with the movie...it was just boring. It was predictable and slow and I finally left early. It's not often I do that, but I just wasn't impressed. Of course, the popcorn was good!
I also discovered a very cool Farmer's Market in Hillcrest that I will go again. They had some of the most eclectic eatery booths. It was very cool.
I managed over 16 K+ steps for the day. The only downside to the day was eating all of the cashews, that was dumb and didn't do my digestive tracts any favors as well. I'm a tad guilty about the mini donuts, but they were very small and all together would have probably made two regular donuts. There were, in a word, delicious! A ham scramble and chicken nuggets round out today's eating, which is likely a bit over the caloric daily goal, but nothing serious.
