Turbo Boost Toot Fest

Today's workout:
Run-7 mile fartlek
Weights-2 x 12

Hot, humid, windy, sunny. I am tired tonight. I think I have Ironman Induced Insomnia. I haven't had a good nights sleep in a couple of weeks now. A good nights sleep is when I'm asleep by ten, wake up once to use the restroom, and fall right back to sleep within a minute or two. It's ideal when I can sleep in until about 7 or 7:30. Then I feel fully rested. The past couple of weeks, I've been unable to fall asleep, then once I'm asleep I can't stay asleep, and then after my bathroom trip it takes me up to two hours to fall back to sleep. And then I'm up at 5:15. I can't figure out any pattern to it. Oh well.

At least I found something great today! I was in the check-out line at Walgreens and I saw that they had a box full of those wooden back scratchers I was talking about the other night! They were only 99 cents! So I got one for the office, one for home, and one for my car!  Now I can age without having to worry about pulling my shoulder while trying to scratch my itchy back!

The run was fine tonight. Nothing special. I felt sluggish and tired. We did eight-three minute fartleks with two minutes easy in between. I even took a couple walk breaks just to rest. It's hard to close my eyes and nap while I'm running so the next best thing is just to take a little walk.

Kristi had Mexican for lunch. I had the lunch special from Mr. Natural. I was running late for the run tonight so I didn't get to empty out the internal plumbing before we headed out. Between the two of us, it was a very "musical" run. We had the turbo boost going full blast today. Kristi took advantage of the loud traffic on 35 to toot, while I preferred to backfire during my walk breaks.

And if it wasn't coming out one end it was coming out the other. I don't think I've ever heard us burp so much during a workout. It was really pretty gross, all the excess gas.....it's a good thing Wayne opted to run a different route!

Ok, now I'm even more tired. I really hope I can fall asleep soon. Come on Mr. Sandman, work your magic!!!!

G'night!
