Workin' out

This summer I started working out again. The last time I was this serious about working out was sometime before I went on my last cruise in 2002 and most probably the summer of 2001 or so.

All told, I'm having fun with it again. For some strange reason it makes me feel good about myself. I don't dread getting out of bed and I can actually stand to look at myself in the mirror. I'm not fat, never have been and never will be. But, I was ultra skinny. You see, if I don't work out I stop eating and I start losing weight. This is bad for lots of reasons.

I'm following this workout regimen. I'm basically on level two for running, but I have yet to start swimming. I'm mid way through level 1 on the other sploof. It'll take me a little while before I start swimming to those levels. I do ride a bike howevor, and I put on a good many miles on it.

Yesterday I ran 4 miles, the day before 3 miles, today I will do somewhere between 3 and 4 miles depending on how I feel. I made this course out in the neighborhood where I can cut off half miles by eleminating blocks or cut backs. This way I can have a 2 mile run or as many as I want by looping the blocks.

I think I will make banana bread today since the color and smooshyness of my bananas right now says No Touche!

In other depresing news I went searching for this radio program I used to listen to all the time in Virginia WHRV public radio. It was called Raleigh Bristol or some such. The guy was fairly old but played some great musich which I really enjoyed. They just don't have DJ's around like that anymore. Well, I guess he either died or they took it off the air or he left the station since I dont' see him or the program listed on their sight. Oh well.

For people who still do love good music I recomend Sounds Eclectic. It broadcasts out of KCRW in Santa Monica and you can get all their play lists from the websight. I can never seem to get it to work for me though.
