A pretty day that began with me sleeping in, not wanting to get up, with a headache?

I have no idea what that headache is all about, but it disappear as I got into my day…….made breakfast for the kid, made coffee and oatmeal (wth blueberries and almond milk for me) and got ready for a clinic talk.

I couldn’t remember if it was for 9AM or 10AM, so I went at 945…and just be talking to fresh air. I hope that the longer I do this, people will join in..I’m in for the long run.

I had hoped to do this as both a Zoom meet and a Facebook live at the same time..may try that again Monday evening. I just can’t seem to get the Facebook live to work for some reason…..but, learning as I go along.

it seems some are watching after I publish on YouTube and I post the links on the Facebook Group, the Virtual Run Club….

It seems the more I do, the more I talk, this also works for me……more of a focus, finding my focus….and deciding what to focus on…me getting older.

I’m still getting use to the new hair cut, and well, getting used to being old……a figured out that two of the secrets, or things I have to pay attention to is rest/recovery….strength and stretching..and using cross training to minimize the high impact repetitive running……..so today, made that effort to work my core, a few important stretches and, hello mr foam roller….takes like 20 minutes, but every little helps this old guy.

And after all of that, Run Club Wednesday…we did a pretty good 6K..I’d planned 7, but one of the group that joined us wanted 5 to 6, at an easy pace, and yep, went with that.

That’s kind of my routine, I’ll have a couple of route planned in my head, and then once I know who’s going to show up, that changes things…and this evening a puppy, got to have a puppy friendly trail.

The puppy (9 months old!) makes a difference too…I try and keep things away from city sidewalks and crossing intersections….keeping it safe.

That run felt really, really good…….which I really, really needed….

Something else I needed to figure out, relax and not to try and do a ton if stuff eveyday…yeah I know an ongoing process, but I make a list of things to do, to get done, and create lists that no one could get done…..now, one thing that has to be done, and when it comes to this endurance game, 1 thing, 1 to be done workout….just 1, maybe something like todays core and foam roll workout….and the rest, just enjoy the day…….and today that worked. It gave me a breather.

I feel really good, hopefully tonight, and good solid 8 hours of sleep….which will make tomorrow way better as well…….

Just figuring this all out.
