Still Inside

Despite the nice weather, I'm still training inside. I'm trying to delay for a while longer the pounding from asphalt and cement, until the muscles and ligaments are a bit stronger. Probably won't matter in the end, but that's my rationale. That and I don't have to worry about intersections, cars, dogs, rabid squirrels, etc.

Wonder why my Saturday morning workouts always seem the best of the week. Couldn't be because I do absolutely no exercise on Friday, could it? Nah.

The Inquiry

Walked into the gym last night, and the woman at the counter asked me if I needed a walker.
I know I'm slow, but sheesh. Turns out she wanted to know if I needed a locker. No, but apparently I could use a hearing aid.

ORN: Indoor Track: Total Time = 51' (43"R/137"W X 16)

Dancing

Last night I watched Dancing with the Stars. Clearly this is a manifestation of the withdrawal I am about to experience when the college basketball season ends next Monday. So, someone named Paulina Porizkova gets the boot from the show. I asked my wife "who is Paulina"?, and if she's such a star, why don't I know who she is? My wife reminds me that I am pop-culturally ignorant of anything happening much later than 1978 (which is true), and informs me that she's a former super-model and married to Ric Ocasek of the Cars. I know of Ric (although I don't know if he's done anything during the past 20 years), and wonder if Paulina would have been attracted to Ric if he hadn't been a rock star. Hmmmm. Maybe tonight, if I'm lucky, I can find a curling match to watch on ESPN.

Just for the Record

(Think it was warmer inside than out. Guess I'm doing early heat training )

Final 4

Well, 3 of my final 4 picks for the NCAA office pool survived. (Wasn't exactly rocket science this year. UCLA surprised me; apparently they were just resting during their end of season "collapse.")

I'm getting event envy watching all the other bloggers talk about their upcoming races.
But... I know.... I know..... I just have to follow my plan during the Spring and Summer and pay my dues like most everyone else did. Fall will be here soon enough, and I'll be complaining about the impending cold weather.

Uneventful

Just keep trying to build up the base.

Treadmill -- Total Time = 1 hour (40"R @ 4.9/140"W X 17)

Nothing Much....

Nothing much happened at my workout last night, which is good news. I'll settle for a comfortable workout with no surprises. Of course, that provides zero material for a blog entry.
