NSFW The Exercise Thread

I'm done with running, but I've lost 12lbs in the last 2 months by walking 3-5 miles a day with weight in a backpack.

Started with 25lbs, now using 45lbs.

Knee pain has vanished.

We have some friends who to ruck races. Fuck that!

Getting back into it, as the Quarantine 15 is weighing heavy on me.

I finished running half an hour ago, and my tits are still dripping.

So I've had a cold since last Monday. We had a 5k scheduled for Saturday. @APRIL told me that with the state of my lungs, there was no way I was going to run a 5k in under 28 minutes.

I ran till my lungs felt like they were going to explode just to prove her wrong. Got 25:55. FUCK YEAH

We did three miles on Thursday when the heat index was about 111F. It sucked, but I felt like a badass at the end. Nature, being the great equalizer, decided to remind me this morning on our five miler what a little bitch I am. Heat index was only around 100F, but I thought I was gonna die.

Nature - 1
Me - 0

Quick and easy mile swim set (in a 25m pool):
11 lengths, :30 rest
10 lengths, :30 rest
9 lengths, :30 rest
8 lengths, :30 rest
7 lengths, :30 rest
6 lengths, :30 rest
5 lengths, :30 rest
4 lengths, :30 rest
3 lengths, :30 rest
2 lengths, :30 rest
1 length

Gets you 1650m, which is a whisker over a mile.

If you're in a filthy imperialist pool (25yd), add 4 lengths on to the end.

That sounds horrible.

I was up in Cambridge, Maryland this last weekend which just happened to have an Ironman going on. Struck up a conversation with this dude who told me about all the jellyfish stings you'll get during the swim portion.

Fuck that.

Of the two of us, who has actually been a swim coach?

I don’t think they had that issue at the Ironman here.

I don’t know the exact length. It’s our community pool and I walked it and measured 26 big steps so I called it 25 yards. Today was 18 laps down and back. One of these days I should measure and see if I was right.

Also I’ll have to work up to a mile. Took me 32 min to do the half today.
