I haven't run since the 28th. And even then, I only ran 4 miles. It was a taper week. That week, my coworker came into work all coughing and harrumphing and sneezing and not sounding healthy at all. The next week, I started not feeling well. It started as a raw feeling in my throat. It wasn't sore, just kinda scratchy and raw, like I'd been ( Read more... )

I just hurt myself. Oh but it hurts!

I've been feeling off lately. Ever so slightly dizzy at times. Teeniest bit of scratchiness and soreness in my throat. Hard to tell if I'm feeling achy because my workouts generally leave me feeling sore anyway ( Read more... )

Dennis was sick all weekend. Started out as allergies. Then moved to congestion. Then he had drainage. This irritated his throat and caused a cough. I went to the pharmacy to get him some drugs. Got carded to buy Mucinex. At least it seemed to help some. At least, he was able to sleep through the night and didn't wake up coughing until this ( Read more... )

So awhile ago, I was on this push-ups kick. Trying to get to the point where I could do 50 in a row. I was on this program where you do 5 sets of push-ups, three times a week, upping the number in each set as you progress. Well, the last time I did them, I over-did it. I hurt my shoulder. So I decided to give it a rest for a bit. Fast forward ( Read more... )

Ran last night. It was tough, but I managed. I'm hoping it gets a bit easier. My first run of this program, I felt fantastic. My second run I was feeling kinda blah, but I felt better as I ran. My third run I had to drag myself outside to run. Yesterday's run was more of the dragging, as well as really having to push myself to not just jog, ( Read more... )

I decided I was going to do push-ups for every point scored in the Colts-Chargers game. Alas, I only made it through half time before falling asleep. The Colts let me down. I did do 7 push-ups, and then 10 though. 17 total ( Read more... )

I've started doing push-ups again.

I did 8 yesterday, along with two sets of 10 crunches on one of those exercise balls.

I managed to do 10 today.

Need to get back into the habit of stretching.

I'm finally feeling better, (antibiotics seem to be doing the trick) so I can finally start riding again too!

I'm missing riding again tonight due to still being sick. I missed on the 14th, then we had two weeks off for the holidays, and now I'm missing again tonight.

That's a full month of no riding. I'm seriously horse-deprived at this point.

Not to mention I'm going to be sore as hell when I go back.
