Morning Run

Weight: 240.5

Often I SAY I'll wake up early and run, but seldom does it ever happen. Last night I went to bed early enough to get the required sleep in order to drag my ass out of bed. I'm stoked that I ran, but the run was no good. The first 100 yards of the run was pure torture. Sharp pains in my right knee and my back wanted nothing to do with the run. I adjusted my pace to a crawl and toughed my way through it. After ten-minutes I settled into a rhythm, but every time I picked up my pace the "pain" resurfaced. In the end, I got it done... nothing fancy, just done! Oh yeah, forgot to mention... it was waaay humid too. I weighed myself after the run and the scale read 239.25. I know it was from all the sweat, but it was still nice to see 230-something. Now that I'm done, I feel really good.
