The one who runs xc, not the one who's going to change the world through dance. Although I would like to be able to dance also, so I change that to me wanting to be able to keep up with both my daughters. Personal: I have two gorgeous daughters; two good-looking cats and two dogs with great personalities. Favorite Blogs: |

I'm running these significantly slower since I rested my ankle for a week. What gives? Do you lose speed that suddenly? I bet it's because of the stress due to the change in our password requirements. Our main password has to be a minimum of 14 characters long. That doesn't include the PIN needed to log in or the additional passwords to get into other applications. If a hacker were able to crack it, all he or she would find out is that the bulk of my projects are overbudget and behind schedule...

Pet peeves: Using the word definitize instead of define or utilize instead of use. Calling a telephone call a telephonic meeting.
I'm done rantizing and I'll post another blogiphonic entry later.

| 8:59 pace. Everything felt good. Heard from an old friend who had just run into an old friend. Didn't make me feel old. |

Entered a pushup contest at the Air Force gym. I was the only one who showed up on time, so I did them and left. I'll go back on Mon for the pullup contest to see if I won a t-shirt. Since it was Air Force they did it with Air Force standards. They only gave you a minute, so it was a matter of speed instead of endurance. Hopefully, no one was faster.
That was also my workout for the day. I wonder if a fitness video titled "One minute arms" would sell. | | Comments(6) |

9:17 pace. It was hot, dry and dusty, but when I took off my shoes there was mud between my toes. I wonder what my lungs look like.
Guitar lesson - It's official. I ain't got no rhythm.

Entered a pullup competetion, I did 4 less than the last competition, but this was timed and the last one wasn't. I was still able to do 17 more than 2nd place. Picked up my prize for the pushup competition from last week as well.
Turns out prizes are leftovers from prior events.
The pushup prize was a towel from the Air Force Marathon, which is good because running a marathon is more impressive than doing a minute's worth of pushups.
The pullup prize was a t-shirt from black history month, which is good because the Tuskegee Airmen are my heroes.
I wonder what they'll give out for situps? | | Comments(6) |

Ran with a friend who's preparing for his 2 mile test in Apr. He was shooting for a 15:36 so I paced him and we finished in 15:33.

Worked later and ate more than I should have.
Split my long run in twain. First half 8:37 pace. Didn't hit start on second half, but it was around a 10-plus pace.

| I posted today's entry in the Thurs slot but I'm not going to bother with it. It's fitting because that was my attitude Thurs anyway. At least as far as exercise was concerned. | | Add Comment |

10 at a 8:36 pace. Went much better than last Friday's long run, where I was seriously chafed from crossdressing.
Before you jump to conclusions, let me explain. When I was leaving for Iraq, United lost my luggage along with my running shorts. I had to buy something until they found and returned my stuff. I was in VA at the pre-deployment center. I was stuck without transportation, so I was limited to places within walking distance. The only running shorts I could find were women's, so I bought a pair of black ones. The looked just like man shorts to me. No lace nor flowers. However, they rub me the wrong way even if I do feel pretty in them.

9:46 pace, cause that's how I roll. Actually, it was a 10:13 pace. I shouldn't do this from memory.

After a rain. I meant to go at a 10:00 pace, but there was a group of three guys running in boots and I couldn't let them pass me...
