Day 357: Run 118
Let's start with the frustration. I currently weigh 190.4lbs... what the explicative?! WHY? I have been running my arse off. Yes my eating is not perfect, but it's not horrible either. I should be maintaining not gaining.
On top of that my tracker made me want to throw my phone across the park today! It totally screwed up how many miles I went. It said I only went 5.56, but I know I went farther than that. It also said I was running a 14 minute mile.... uhhh YEAH RIGHT!!! It is not possible for me to run the entire mile and have it last 14 minutes. I walk a 15 minute mile.
Any suggestions for new tracking apps. I'm thinking about Nike Plus, but feel like a sell out going to Nike. Don't get me wrong, I love Nike (especially their dri-fit t-shirts) and they have great products however, there are times when I just can't stand the complete commercialistic outlook of their company. (I understand that they are a business but I'm pretty sure they would sell their soul to Satan to make a huge profit. Why do my shoes cost so much if there are little kids in china making them?)
Any suggestions or personal inputs for a new tracker are more than welcomed!
Moving on, I felt rather fierce while I was running today, it could have been that I was extremely pissed off by my tracker, but I felt athletic and unstoppable... even when I stopped to talk to this old guy who told me I was ruining my knees by running and that I should just walk. Well yeah that's easy for someone who is in shape and walks all day long and probably doesn't have to worry about what he eats. He's currently walking 23,000 miles for MS. Go Don!
- Motivation: I just want to be in shape and healthy. In all honesty have been lacking motivation lately. My plan was to hit the summer running and exercising and going to the gym, but that's just not happening. I need motivation and I need it bad!
