Exhausting workouts.

JensNotes | Pura Vida

I’m just back from my daily Y workout, and i’m at my grandma’s house.  They boys wanted to play in the baby pool with their cousin Rachel, so I brought them over.  And since it’s freaking hot out… about 95 degree’s it sounded good.

I think I did almost 5 miles today, and my knee pain is almost non-existent, so it proved well that I push through the pain.  I spent 1 hour and 40 minutes walking this morning.  I feel weird doing that much because people always stare at me… you only have a 30 minute cardio limit, but I go when it’s not crowded so I stay on.  I still get the stares from the employee’s though.  I only do that when there are more than 3-4 treadmills open.  Any less than that, and I would be selfish.  Some of the other treadmill hogs don’t give a squat even when people are waiting a long time to get on, but I don’t do that.

I can’t wait for cooler weather because then it will feel good to get all sweaty and then walk outside into the cool air.  On the other I hate winter so I hope it doesn’t come for a while.

I’m so exhausted at the moment though… and dang it, I need to go to Meijer but the darn store is closed due to a hazmat situation.  I guess some pool chemicals spilled and created a chemical cloud early this morning, so they are not letting anybody back in until the situation is clear.  I bet some kids were involved in that one.  Pool chemicals just don’t fall off shelves and mix together without any help.  Being it was at about 1:30a.m. it wouldn’t surprise me any.

Maybe i’ll write some more later when i’m full of energy again!
