Weekly Workouts 5/18-5/24
So.. I started Aikido last week and it was very challenging both mind and body. Mind because I, as with every new class, felt completely uncoordinated and pathetic. Body because OW OW OW. I fool myself into thinking that I'm exercising every muscle possible with my regimen, and then I start something new only to find out there are still a few I've neglected. How does that happen? So I ended up not doing Pound or Piyo last week, so that my body wouldn't fail on me. :P

This week just got complicated. My wife had to leave for Salt Lake City this morning as her brother, only about 40, is dying of cancer. Our daughter lives with us and I need to help in the morning with the kids getting to school.
Cancer i****ting hard in my life right now. I have a cousin battling breast cancer, my brother in law as mentioned, a good friends mom just went into hospice care and my mom(83) is under going chemo/radiation for stomach cancer.

Hello All...
Over the weekend did my 1st 5K trail run...quite different than a road race. About 1 mile in rolled my ankle. Luckily did not completely sprain it or hurt it as I learned to tie my shoe differently. The last hole at the top of shoe is to be used to make a bunny loop then pulled through to tighten. I firmly believe this allowed me not to complete roll my ankle.
Monday-1 Hour Spin
Tuesday-3 mile run
Wednesday-1 Hour Spin
Thursdy-4 mile run
Friday-N/A heading out of town for family visit.
Have a happy healthy week...
Yours in WLS Journey,
Bill Mac

It was a great and very emotional day. I suffered through the run after wanting to quit a few times. I actually eneded up walking more than I was able to run. I crossed the finish with plenty of time at 8 Hours 11 minutes. I beat the 8:30 time on the race clock which I felt great about.
