Last Sunday Feb, 25, 2018 I logged my longest ‘JOG’ever at 3.81 miles in 68 minutes with an average speed of 2.91 mph.
I was so proud of that accomplishment!
The most I recall doing in distance was 3.25 miles … more or less…. yet ….
I KNEW I left something ‘on the table’ when I was through and off the treadmill.
This morning was the first time back on the treadmill since then, and I was determined to go to the 4 mile mark.
(Remember that it was December 16th, 2017 that I recorded this picture to show a starting point for ‘Working Out’ …)
Then I started construction of the ‘Slideshow’ for Motivation with pictures like this…
(This one is actually is a picture off the screen showing the ‘slideshow’ CHECK OUT THE CHIN on that dude in the Flowered Shirt… … that is me doing some EXTREME SPORTS called ‘HORSE SHOES’… …. really…. )
There, you can see THE CHIN better now … (WHAT a fat chin…)
So today is March 1, 2018, just about 75 days after the 12/16/2017 Iron Man Shot.
I recall starting to ‘walk’ on the treadmill about then and lifting some weights and wanting to look like… Marc Ramirez from EATING YOU ALIVE
Or the first fellow I saw running and losing weight like a BOSS, Fatmanrants.com (TimKaufman)
I remember seeing this very photo and thinking “WHAT!? If Tim could do that, so COULD I !!”
That, and the aforementioned event where a dear family member told me I looked like an old man with nothing but skin and bones for arms … …. inspired me to do the 12/16/2017 picture and get on the treadmill and grab some weights.
Zoom to today…
For an Hour and Forty Two minutes I was jogging. Fifteen minutes at 2.8 mph, the remaining 87 minutes at 3.0 mph.
That was a pace 20;37. Can SOMEONE tell me what THAT MEANS!?? IDK!
Not that I am worried about calories burnt, nor eaten (hey, I am oldmanskinandbones.com …. I don’t count calories, measure protein, nor FEAR CARBS! Actually, I thought this was going to take the picture to tell me the average MPH for the entire run/jog …. but I missed taking that readout …. )
And this, my friends, IS THE DISTANCE I JOGGED !!!! Beats the HELL outta that 3.81 record setting 4 day ago, eh?
Five FANTASTIC MILES.
I was going to stop at 4.25 miles but a picture of Betty in her wedding dress came up, and Rascal Flatts started singing ‘The Broken Rose’ and I couldn’t stop with that song on.
Then, I was gonna stop at 4.75 miles but Dave Mathews Band came on doing DRIVE IN DRIVE OUT and a picture of (THE BEAST MAN) Josh LaJaunie
… and who could stop at that?
So I went to FIVE MILES.
Like a Damned BOSS…
Does anyone want a potato?
Folks, don’t count calories, don’t measure proteins, DON’T FEAR CARBS!
