Format c: Ever since I have received those those books from Amazon, I have been trying to retrain my mind. I know for me my biggest problem is complacency. Doing the same old routine. Change becomes difficult (if not impossible). Worst, my complaceny quickly can lead to arrogance. Expecting different results from the same action is insanity. In order to push for better performance, I have started...
Encounter with the dentist Went over to the dentist this morning. The dentist said my gums still need healing before he can do anything. There is a tooth I really want him to pull out. I can’t because I am going to my friends’ concert this afternoon. I doubt they want to see me mouth full of blood. So my dentist told me to see him next Sat. I am glad. It is time to yank that sucker...
Cramming for Ironman I ordered a few reading materials off amazon few weeks ago. On the website, it would take them December to delivery to me. I wasn’t happy about that. To my surprise, they arrived today. So, let the cramming begin 🙂 My goal is with these books (I also borrow a few others from the library), I can have a better training plan for 2006. I feel that this year the training...
One sick Christian! I realize I am sick. I have a mental illness. The sad thing is I don’t think any medication or doctor can make me better. I can feel it in my blood. It crawls inside of me everyday. My sickness is that anything I suck at I get totally addicted to it. Looking back in my 25 years of life on earth, yeah I am definitely sick. When I started running, I couldn’t run 400...
A bad case of runner’s kick Went over to the pool this morning. There was a gentlemen, much older and much out of shape than me, splashing around in the pool. I am sure this guy is a regular. The remarkable thing is that this guy freestyle non stop. I would stop after each length. This guy will keep going and going and going. When he pass me, I went underwater and see how is he able to swim...
Noodle arm (just one) and running my own experiment Last night, I had a thought. There is a community pool that is close to where my mom works. I figure I can get up early, jog there and swim. My mom will drive to work. I will pick up the car and drive to work. Then after work, I will pick her up. I tried out the new schedule today. So far it worked pretty well. I get time to train. My mom can...
Catnip, a monster in the pool, an unplanned training plan 1) We have two cats in our house. Last night I bought some catnip home and give it to one of them (jojo). I have read how catnips can get a cat very high (like weed, except no smoking, is legal and no harmful side effects). Jojo was rolling all over that stuff. He got very hyper. Sweet..I wish catnip can work for me as well (especially...
Random thoughts of the day 1) Need to swim more. I haven’t touch the pool since after Triathlon. Hmm chlorine, here I come 😉 2) Getting very excited about leading my Fellowship. A few projects that I think will really bring the group together. Hopefully, not force them together (as long as we are sharing Christ’s Love…it’s all good). I word it wrong. it is how my group can...
Diet is on vacation for a day and getting hooked up on the Internet Today my diet is on vacation. I had two coffees in the day time. At dinner time me, Anners and her b/f decided to do a little celebration. She just completed her second 1/2 marathon with a PB and I just finish my marathon last Sunday. We went to Casey’s. Since I don’t have a front tooth to eat burgers and steaks, I...
Running for the sake of running I ran 12 km yesterday. It felt great. No HRM, no time to focus on. Just me, the road and my mp3 player pumping those Euro beats. Today I did a quickie 5 km jog. I realize my rain gear is not rain proof. It was cold and wet. So I figure I might as well make a short run. Lesson learnt, rain gear should be water proof 🙂. Also get gloves too, hands are freezing from...
