My Journey Through Rehab

OK  I signed up for a 14.2 mile race in Manhattan today. It’s scheduled for Labor Day weekend and I have to start stretching out my runs. Sunday I ran 8 miles and have to keep adding because I like to know I can actually finish a race I start. When I was talking with my friend he was saying that if I ever want to run a full one I should do it now since I’ll be half way there. It got me thinking…. as for this one I’m looking forward to running down the West Side Highway. Should be fun. Weight workouts won’t change so let’s get this started.

I can’t really explain why but my running is going really well. I don’t have any runs scheduled but for the past 3 weeks my time on Saturday’s are going down. I usually run about a 5k on Saturday and 3 weeks ago I averaged about 8:04 a mile than last week it was 7:58 and today it was 7:52. I finished it in 24:18 and for me that’s cruising. Maybe the hill work which I do after is helping and I should enter a 5k just to get an official time, either I’m pretty happy with the times.

My workouts are still going good and I still have work to do on my abs but I think my shoulders and chest are looking decent, my right arm is coming along but I don’t want it to look to much bigger than the left. My left has given me no problems but the size just will never come back so it’ll won’t look right. I still need to shed some fat around my waist.

The regular season is over in softball so now it’s makeup and playoff time. Right now were 15-3 and in first place. Not too shabby for a bunch of 40+ old guys playing guys in there 20’s and 30’s.
