Running with Jack

A rolling stone gathers no moss and a cross-training runner doesn’t gather any dust. I had another stressful day at work, too much on the table, so on the way home I considered how to deal with this. My wife had to work late so I had a little time for myself. It is still too early to start running in my opinion, my legs agree, so I decided to do my upper body weight training. I was amazed at how much this tired me out, this hasn’t happened before, it has been a couple weeks. Hmmm...

But in any case I’m a glutton for punishment so I did a couple more sets of push-ups and sit-ups and headed out for a 10K spin on my mountain bike. The latter felt good and loosened up all the leg muscles nicely.

I am thinking about heading for the swimming pool on Friday night, maybe I can talk my sweety into it too! My wife's English course starts again next week so I can knock myself out on the running on Monday and Wednesday's without worrying if I am biting into quality time together.

But for this week, can somebody run an extra mile for me?
