Day 454

33 minutes!  That would be my latest time running around Padden.  I bought new shoes and the new shoes are the reason I'm sure?  Something to build on I would say.  I also didn't run with music (forgotten at home) so it was funny to hear myself.  If someone would have been making the amount of out of breath noises I was making I would imagine I'd have been very worried about them.
Here's a thought that rattled around my brain.  I wonder if the no music made me faster?  Maybe I'll have to not bring music again next week and see if I can duplicate my time or be faster still?  Interesting thought as I've read music does make a difference in performance.

Breakfast: 20oz of cold water was all I have before the run.

After running: Protein drink.

After workout: Focaccia sandwich with chips and an ice tea drink.

Dinner: Cole slaw salad with chicken tenders, avocado, and cucumber.

Late night snack: 100cal bag of popcorn

Today L and I actually worked on stretching.  We thought my back issue might be in need of stretching.  So L showed my a series of stretches that I can do in the mornings before work.  I hope they will help.  I'll also do them in the evenings.  I might have to take it easier in Tabata for a while until I get this licked.

Picked up my bike after getting a tune-up.  They adjusted the brakes and the gears so I should be good to go.  I am once again ready to ride.
