Thoughts on the Run:
So, I stumbled across this page which I thought was pretty neat.
It has all of the Google Gadgets I’ve developed in one neat, little place.
I’m surprised that over 6,000 people use the body fat calculator but only 1,400 or so subscribe to the Question of the Day … interesting.
I’ve got a few new gadgets up my sleeve. Be on the lookout for a kitchen conversions, VO2Max, and random recipe tool in the near future!
Speaking of recipes, my daughter had a wonderful debut with her Breakfast Parfait video. Thanks for all of the support! While you’re on it, click that link to see the design for “their” section of the site - it’s a totally custom look and feel for the ladies.
This morning I did NOT feel like running. I slept in an extra hour just trying to talk myself out of it, then dragged myself out of bed and stumbled downstairs. The first 5 minutes were tough because it felt like my legs were going to just give in and I felt like I weighed 1,000 pounds. Then I began to sweat, warm up, and get into it and it was fun to finish … and 30 seconds is the time I won, just about a dozen seconds faster per mile than last week. I’m close to breaking the 9-minute mile mark on my 3 mile runs, but we’ll see how the longer runs pan out. Tomorrow is an easy neighborhood run.
If you love pizza as much as I do, you’ll enjoy this article about healthier crust (just give it some time to load) … then link into their whole wheat pizza crust recipe.
For those of you who like to hear about extraordinary accomplishments, here’s a nice little blurb about the Badwater Ultramarathon.
It amazes me that you still find people who swear a healthy lifestyle has no connection to reducing risk of disease or other ill effects. They seem to totally dismiss stories like this one about the positive benefits for even something as dire as cancer.
Warmly,
