One Week of Exercise I've managed to get myself down to the complex gym for eight straight days. I have no idea how long this period will last but I'm enjoying it while it does. I actually feel better when my muscles (all four of them) are sore. I haven't really done anything to adjust my eating so I don't expect any significant weight change, just an improvement in how I feel at the weight I am. One Week: 7 days exercised. 6 days of 1 hour 1 day of 45 minutes (treadmill) 6 days on treadmill 1 day on eliptical 21.1 miles done on the treadmill for an average pace of 16:21 per mile. Needless to say I'm forced to start slow and not much running is happening yet, but slow running is more comfortable than fast walking so it'll start playing a bigger role if I keep this up. If I did that consecutively out on city streets, I could have walked from home to the CineArts theater I sometimes go to in Pleasant Hill. Also, this week has highlighted brought to my attention that I have no idea where my iPod is since it has been months since I last used it. And for some reason the TVs in the complex gym do not get the 24 hour news channels and surprisingly there is nothing good on TV at 5:30 in the morning. So I am forced to watch the local news. Which sucks since I blame local news for all that is wrong in the world. If local TV news did not exist in the United States I suspect that Jews and Palestinians would be living in harmony today and that Two and a Half Men would never have made it to air. And coffee would taste good.
