Cross-Training (30 minutes)

Thursday, 28 May 2009 | 05:09 pm

Notes:
Swimming last night was a bit better than my 2-mile run. It was busy at the pool again but at least the lane I joined was manageable. I think I’m improving, as far as my freestyle stroke goes (i.e., breathing has gotten better) so if I really want to do a triathlon, I’m sort of on schedule. :) This is my last “real” training before the SD marathon. On Saturday, I need a 2-mile run but I doubt I’d be able to run that… Well, I’ll do my best to do it. ^_^

Training Run: 2 miles

Tuesday, 26 May 2009 | 08:10 pm

Notes:
ZOMG. I just had a rather indulgent weekend: a chili dog with fries and orange soda on Saturday for lunch then Buffalo wings and fries with 2 pints of Stella for supper. A Jeff’s Burger and rootbeer for lunch on Sunday then Udon soup combo for supper. Filet mignon (teppanyaki-style), chicken fried rice, and a glass of Kirin for lunch yesterday then more Buffalo wings, fried potato skins with sour cream, bacon bits and green onions, and 4 pints of Stella for supper… Then this afternoon, I had a chicken nacho plate. AHHHHH. That’s literally everything I ate this past holiday weekend and er, I totally felt it during my labourious 2-mile! run this afternoon. >_< I feel so out-of-shape, and that’s a few days after my 15-miler.

Now I’m scurrred. Scurrred that I can’t run with Sheryl at her pace at her first evar marathon! EEEK. LOL. It also didn’t help that tonight I had two carne asada tacos — they’re not as good as the OLG Carne Asada Fiesta tacos, but they were still, well, rather indulgent!

Anyway, here are the Garmin Connect stats and Nike+ report:

Poppy Field

We cherish too, the Poppy red
That grows on fields where valor led,
It seems to signal to the skies
That blood of heroes never dies.

- Moina Michael (1869-1944)
