First run results, after a 28 minute run, with 5 min cool down period which was still on the clock.
And about 30 sec after 8 finished that, I did an interval training session for 60 minutes, with a 5 min cool down period, for a total of 98 combined minutes of running today. My hips are a bit sore. No doubt.
So 943 calories, 98 minutes, and just over 13,000 steps. I was sweating profusely after that long of a session. It dripped off my elbows to pool on the floor under the elliptical. I really need to go mop that up. Running in bare feet in the elliptical is kinds fun. A bit slick after you get into it and start to slide on the foot plates. I had music to listen to this time which made for a more fun experience. I wish I had my JBL Boombox 2.0 to blast tunes directly into my bones, but alas I do not. Although I will say this, being able to sing along with my eyes shit is a benefit I don’t get when running on a track. Can’t go eyes closed when running properly. Not unless you want to run into somebody, or something, such as trees, garbage cans, and fencing!
School will start soon so maybe the public track will have fewer people at in during the day. If I could be assured that the dog would actually run, I’d bring the fuzz ball with me. But he’s not keen on walks, so I don’t know if he’d care for runs. I’ll give it a try, and can make a determination from there on how to proceed.
Can’t go barefoot when I run on the track. I’d have a hell of a time not pulling toe nails off if I tried that.the elliptical has a strange gait, but also less stress on my ankles (which I appreciate). So it’s a bit of give & take. I’m well shy of the 3,500 calories needed to drop a full lb of body fat. Maybe a gym with freevweights would help me get closer to a caloric deficit, if I also keep up some jogging/running. We’ll just have to wait & see.
