In this game, I penetrated my own cunt with my dong. I’m not sure how I did it, but I’m glad that I did.

Total time: 37 minutes
Total mileage: juuuuuust under 2 miles, still no pedometer battery

This was a tough one. A little sore at the beginning of the day, so I wasn’t sure I’d be able to do it. Aside from my legs feeling a little heavy and stiff on the course, no pain. Tough to breathe today, especially during the home stretch, but it’s warm, humid and the sun’s out here, with very little in the way of shade for about half the course. I did make it this time, though, and go down to Monday’s levels on Saturday, so long as I’m not dying for the next 2 days from muscle wear.

So, onward to Saturday and the beginning of the next 50 runs.

Total time: 33 minutes
Total mileage: I’m going to guess about 1.85 miles. Still no battery in the pedometer; this week. I did my usual 1.75-ish, then I had to do walking laps around my parking lot for the last 2 minutes. I will, someday, get the hang of measuring my runs evenly.

Stuck with the current level of workout. Wasn’t an easy run today, because I’ve had a workout and a half off since my last one, but the shin pain (for now) seems to be minimal and I’ve caught my breath already. We’ll see how I feel over the next 2 days, and then we’ll see how I feel during and after the longer workout that’s scheduled for 2 days from now, which was my undoing last week. That run will be my 50th, and I’m probably closing in on about 75 miles too (not all of it running, admittedly, but I’m gradually reaching the workout level where almost all of it is, and in marathoning, unless you’re an elite athlete, some of it’s going to be walking anyway). Pretty awesome, for someone who was quite recently an unathletic non-runner. That’s almost 3 marathons. Of course, it’s easy to run 3 marathons if you allow yourself 5 months to do it, but it’s a start.

Onward to Thursday.

If not, they should’ve.

Terry Kiser even looks like Joey Silvera. It’d totally work.

For starters, they want to save the childhood home of Jerry Siegel, where Superman was conceived in part (his partner, Joe Shuster’s home has already been demolished, sadly). From there…who knows? When dealing with people who have great imaginations and a big hearts, the sky isn’t the limit…it’s just the beginning.

Longer review: This one actually wouldn’t be so bad if there was a shred of focus to it. It’s not as completely off the rails as the “St. Anger” stuff, but you can tell that they’re just trying to show their audience (and maybe themselves) that they can still “thrash”, and in the process, they’re kind of ignoring the whole idea of there being a song somewhere in there, and they still look like a bunch of old men scrambling for their hard-on pills. Come to think of it (and pardon the pun there), “Cialis…it helped me avoid ‘My Apocalypse’, and it’ll help you avoid yours too!” has a hell of a ring to it. Someone get their management on the phone for me, we’ll make millions together.

5 minutes walking
7 minutes jogging/2 minutes walking
2 minutes jogging
Ow.
22 minutes walking

Total time: 39 minutes (I was supposed to do 36, with about 25 of it jogging)
Total mileage: pedometer’s dead at the moment, but I’d say I did about 1.7, with .85 of it resembling the workout I was supposed to do.

Yep, shin splints are acting up. Left side, which was the problem side, not as much as the right, which hurts right now. I was a little sore yesterday, a little more sore today, but I figured I’d give it a shot anyway just to see what kind of shape I was in, not pushing myself, just an easy pace. Stopped a little less than halfway in, because I was not enjoying myself much. Nothing stabbing, pain-wise, nothing like a pull, just some splint action here. I’ve run in much worse pain, but that’s also how that pain ended up lasting for a very long time, so I pulled the plug.

So, here’s the plan: skipping the 3rd run of the week, and I’ll start again on Monday or Tuesday if I’m feeling sufficiently recovered. Still debating whether or not I’ll stay at my current workout level or scale back to last week’s. Input on the subject is more than welcome, especially from experienced runners.

5 minutes walking
4 minutes jogging/1 minute walking x 2
8 minutes jogging/2 minutes walking
5 minutes jogging

*sound of me hitting wall here*

1 minute walking

(The last part was supposed to be 6 minutes jogging/2 minutes walking.)

Total time: 31 minutes
Total mileage: My pedometer’s battery died! I was probably at about 1.9 miles, though, judging by how far I got into the course.

Most jogging I’ve done yet in a single workout, and I was fine until that last leg. Legs were OK, breathing didn’t suck, considering the extra distance I was adding. On the last leg, though, man did I get dehydrated. Gonna have to actually bring a water bottle with me on Friday, which I haven’t been doing for a while (just relying on the park water fountain, which has been more than enough for a while until today). I’m recovering pretty well, though, about 10 minutes after I finished. This is a good reminder that I’m not quite ready for the 5K, though. I was gonna shoot for Monday’s Pier Village 5K, but that wouldn’t have been prudent. Almost there.

Instead, I’m gonna try the Deal 5K on October 12th, I believe it is. You heard it here first. Wish me luck.

Onto Friday.

Total time: 32 minutes
Total mileage: 1.72 miles

This one was rough on the shins and calves, and a little rough on the lungs (nearly hit the wall after my favorite hill, but I nutted it out), but I’ve now achieved a twofold feat: not only have I moved up a training level, but I’ve completed an entire week’s worth of it without crapping out at any point. So, with that in mind, assuming I don’t walk around in pain for the next two days, I think I’ll be trying the next workout level starting Tuesday. If I am all crippled n’ shit for the next 2 days, then I’ll stick with this workout level. Sound like a deal?

Also: you just haven’t lived until you’ve jogged to both Survivor and Semi-Precious Weapons during the same workout.
