Dee-Runs

and still going....

2010-10-03T14:35:00.000-07:00

STILL DOING STUFF...
I have a heel issue, that pretty much sucks.
Now the air is getting crisp...and I feel as though my body is too.
adjustment period....gets longer as the years go on.
but I'll still be running, blowflexing and abs and what ever else I can fit in.
Rock on....

and she still going....

Well...I've decided put a pause on anymore blog entries for Dee-Runs...because Dee just isn't running much anymore. My hips hurt too much to run. I still doing treadmill walking w/ intense treadmill workouts, plus abs & blowflex...but until I get back into a regular running routine...I'll be silent. I'm I too old to run? Is it my Vit- D levels?? Walking is much better, less pain - usually not much. I did just order some Vegan Joint Glucosamine...so we will see. Hope to see you soon!

I've been running, just not posting. I had to take a break since October '08 because of a hip/joint issue (read about it there). For the past month I've been incorporating more running into my workouts....but just last week I've started to run outside, instead inside on the treadmill. I still have pain in my hips at times, but nothing I can't work through or that rest doesn't help. So I'm back, hoping this log will allow me to exceed my running goals. Since I've been not running, I've incorporated BLOWFLEX (which is really bowflex) & some free weights, and a DVD workout for the abs. I hate Blowflex, but I like the results. I love the ab workout...even though the music sounds like porn music (well....so I've been told). So I'll be posting those doings here too.

So here is the scoop on me....

* Born in Dec. 1963 - I'm 45.

* Height: 5' 7"

* My current BMI 20.5

* My goal BMI 19.5 ish

* I like to work out before I go to work, so I try to get up at 5:30 am, but I usually hit the snooze once.

* I'm vegan- (see this link for detailed definition)
I eat no animals or any product that is produced by animals. That means things like no eggs, cheese, honey, milk, or gelatin. I do not use sugar that processed by using bone char. I do not use items that are tested on animals or have animal "parts" in them. No leather, fur, wool or silk. I make it a practice not to kill bugs (I make an exception for flies or mosquitoes that land on me). I have a vegan blog that has more info, but that is the jest of it.

* I like vodka and it's vegan

Just a log for myself, to keep a RUNNING track of my running.
I want to increase my distance...haven't ran 5 miles in ages.
My frequency of running is usually 5 times a week.
I run in the morning before work, and i like to run outside.
I like to be out running by 6 a.m.
I'll run in any temperature above 9 degrees, I need double digits baby.

A couple of years ago I trained, and signed up for the Detroit half marathon. One day of my training I had to run 10 or 11 miles. After my run, probably during it, I wondered WHY anyone wanted to run that far??? I ended up with an injury that day that prevented me from running the 'thon....but I do have a nice $50 t-shirt from signing up!
I set no goal like that again. Running that far is BORING.

The end.
