Day Four


Day Four

Well, Day Four worked out well. It was definitely not as eventful as DAY THREE and I can say I am HAPPY to report that. It started with me getting up at 6 am as I normally do. I know I told you all that today I would walk/jog on the treadmill in the exercise room in my basement but when the lady on the news said that it would possibly rain tomorrow, I decided I would save the basement workout for DAY FIVE.

I got up, got myself together and headed to the track about an hour earlier than I had previously gone the days before. I did not bother waking BabyGenius because after I had told him about the incident with the dog chase, he seemed less enthusiastic about being my running partner. He did ask me why didn’t I use what I had learned from "The Dog Whisperer" and smirked whilst asking.  My only response was laughter. I wanted to say to him “Damn all that!” but I only laughed.

Anyway, I got to the track and to my surprise there was no Daisy. However, there was a familiar face. Yesterday, I had told my tenant about my journey to not train for a marathon and she decided to join me! Wow! I have my first official follower! Well, I may have more but no one commented on this blog to say they were joining me so I can’t count you if I don’t know about you.  Did I just say tenant? If anyone from the Town of Islip is reading, I meant my cousin who’s only visiting for a while.  Yeah, that’s it.

Ok, I just get off topic again huh? I will not apologize because I warned you before that I tend to do that.  As I stated, today went well. I did the 6 laps as I had done yesterday but today for some reason my calves started hurting on the 4th lap so I was only able to run for part of only 3 laps. I jogged a little on the 1st, 2nd and 6th lap.  I wasn’t really tired. It was just that my calves were aching. I think I may need a day off.  I’m just afraid that if I take a day off, then that may be the end.  No more jogging. No more blogging. THE END. Maybe I will take off tomorrow which is the 4th of July. I doubt it. I’ll probably just ride my stationery bike for 45 minutes instead.  We’ll see. I do know that yesterday I had a break in between laps while I waited for Lazy Laura to gather up her bloodhounds. That can possibly be the difference between today and yesterday. Maybe I should get Lazy Laura to let loose Marmaduke on my last two laps so I can get my sprint on. J

Well, that was DAY FOUR. I will check in with you all tomorrow. Oh, by the way can someone remind me that Tuesdays are maintenance day on the track field? Not that anyone was in my way but I can say that it was a little uncomfortable walking off the track in tight spandex, wet with sweat and all this booty past a group of ethnic men. No one said anything but I could feel their gazes as they stopped EVERYTHING they were doing when I walked by and one even winked at me. The nerve! I’d rather not do that again. That was almost worse than running from the dogs. I felt like I was walking in slow motion. Had my calves not been bothering me, I would have jogged to my car, which would have probably been great for them as running would have caused bouncing boobs and booty but at least the moment wouldn’t have been as long. With all that said, remind me to run on the treadmill on Tuesdays from now on. Please and thank you!
