Washed and vacumed out both vehicles plus wiped down the wife's car inside and then a 3 mile walk about the neighborhood. Will start the long road back to running come Monday, have been off for three years.
Experience is what you get, when you don't get what you want!
Running is awesome and I'm rooting for you and Pointer as you rev it back up!
If the impact aspect of it gives you issues, consider a road bike, especially if it's hilly in your AO. Super fun and can border on suicidely aerobic if you want.
Well, I can still say I have ran everyday this year! Mostly 2mi at a whack, with a couple of 1.5ers in there when time was short. Will start stretching it out a bit soon.
Still recovering a bit from bronchitis so didn't do a full workout. I thought the Dr was FOS when he said it would be 3-4 weeks recovery.....he wasn't.
Warm-up: Elliptical
Circuit - 5 rounds, no rest between sets/rounds: DB Bench DB Row Reverse Hyper
King for a day???? The watch can't keep up and two fingers on the wrist said 183, but the watch keeps score. A youte like you should knock me off quickly.
Wifey goes back to work tomorrow so I forestalled my shop duties another day and we hit the coast. Did a really neat hike from Tahkenitch lake to the coast, over hill and dale and through some coastal old growth, that totals 7.2 miles round trip. I fished for surf perch. The bite was ON; I caught a fish the first 8 casts and caught 12-15 before the receding tide killed the bite and I got too cold. However, they were running small. Didn't keep any.
Then, on the way home, a woman hit a guy on a bike, swerved off the road, hit a tree, came back on the road, and we hit her head-on. I had time to slow down enough that the airbags thankfully didn't deploy. I did jam my bad hip up pretty good and seem to have pulled a groin muscle. Cyn's back is going south fast. So we got lucky within the context of getting unlucky I guess. Cyclist was injured but will be ok. Woman driving the van was elderly and seemed intoxicated... pills maybe? So, we'll see how the bod feels tomorrow. Probably go to the doc just to document things in case the hip is well and truly horked... Pretty [bleep] bummed about the hip. This is my bad hip that I hurt skiing 30 years ago. The one thing I can't do, is jam it, and it got jammed. Ugh. Minimum it's going to be sore a while, worst case is my wonderful window of relatively pain-free functionality might be impacted. It was pretty bad for about ten years after the injury, then somewhat miraculously stabilized... fawk.

You keep red-lining it and I may not have to.......
Cardio for me today, 40 minutes on the stationary bike, only got the HR into the low 170s but burnt a little over 400 cals in 35 minutes according to the machine. We just got new bikes at my gym, they piss me off by not giving credit for as many calories for the same workout. Or maybe I'm getting old and it just seems like the same workout.....
Got on the scale at the gym for the first time in weeks, only gained a pound through all the holiday feasting and inactivity, I'll take it.
