Tired

Interesting day. Went to my daughters soccer game. Played some soccer with the boy. Racing after him killed my heart and lungs after a little. I then went and saw Resident Evil: Aftermath. with the boy. We enjoyed it. Ate popcorn and drank lemonade and orange drink. It was not as good as some of the other movies but still fun.

Went to buy a Droid-X. All sold out. The salesperson tried to sell me a Samsung. It is the newest one. I have not done any research though so I figured I would check it out online first.

Hit the track and did 2.5 miles. I killed my first mile. It went something like this:

1/4th 2:14, 2/4th 4:20, 3/4th 7:08, 1 mile 9:36. The rest of the run KILLED me though. Really tough. I finished up at 27:30, which is not bad for me for 2.5 miles. I need to learn to slow down a little though.

I feel like I have so far to go. I can see that I have done a lot and am in much better shape. I still feel like I have a ways to go. I mean on one hand I CAN run pretty far. On the other hand short sprints wind me as much as they ever did and the long runs are hard. I have increased speed. My chest is looking much better. Not a lot of fat anywhere. My tummy still has a ways to go though.

I have not been doing this exercise thing very long so I am proud of what I have accomplished. I just see I have a long ways to go before I am in really good shape.

You've done great so far asshole. Just know that there is no finish line. There is no stopping. You can only define goals, build objectives to obtain those goals, create strategies to accomplish those objectives, and implement tactics to conquer those strategies.

Why is this so hard? Because you've been one of those instant gratification assholes that want results NOW! You're getting better though so I'll give you a pass on this whiny post.

Keep on going baby. Follow the program!
