Undone...The Weekend Song

Well it's been a good week. I picked up my new custom inserts last Thursday and was instructed to introduce them 1 hour a day, then at 8 hrs of wear time try to run in them. I wore them all day Saturday, which wasn't my intention but, I got drunk and forgot to take them out. I interpret this to mean I can now run in them and that's what I did on Tuesday. I took a run over to the post office to get a stamp. there's this trail that drops down behind it into the Bedford Reservation but, has a 3' deep creek crossing to get back up onto the return trail. It was a bit chilly and as i headed over there I became concerned for my new inserts getting wet. I headed back onto the road and scrapped the idea. I did a 4 mile trail run in them on Thursday and I have to say that they are quite nice. My gait has noticeably changed and i have become sore in all new areas. So now I see why a slow intro is needed.



The big fun has been in the pool this week. Only upped the distance 1000 yds but, I increased the intensity a little. I'm still concentrating heavily on the long slow technique with a bit of speed. My shoulders feel good for another week which is great. i think the strengthening exercises must be helping.



Monday thru Friday goes great. Good diet, good workouts, good sleep. Then Friday 5pm rolls around and Rod Berry takes over. It always starts the same. Just grab a six of some type of micro brew and head home. It doesn't help that Natalie brings 12 miller lites home. Next thing I know it's Sunday evening and recycle bin is about 40 bottles deep. This is just too much to work off in a week. I was was thinking about that as I sat at the dermatologists office today. Nothing but a paper towel covering my lap as my hot ass doctor (she) checks my ball bag for "abnormal" spots. I'm thinking, Wow, what a lucky lady, having to look over some chubby guy that stinks like chlorine.



So that's what the today's title means. Check out the picture. Rod rearranged my nutrition shelf after Portage Lakes with all his favorite stuff.

If I can figure it out I will get a few pics from the weekend posted.
