Off to the Dr's


Today I headed to the local Walk-in Clinic to get a doctors note to head to the Massage therapist and Physio clinic.


The thing is I'm glad I'm not going tot he clinic with a actual sickness, I've been there before and I fell that i am smarter then the doctor, I don't know if it's Canada's lack of Doctors that they will accept anyone, but this guy is clueless.


He told me that my lower back pain had no connection to my pulled hamstring injury, he only wrote me a note for massage and wouldn't write it for Physio. So anyways I left and after seeing the massage therapist today, I', going back to a different Dr to get a note for the Physio I needed and the Massage therapist backed up.


The Massage therapist told me that my quads were over developed and that my hams and glutes were weaker causing some tendon issues between my hams and glutes, So they will fix it up with hard work and Physio.


Part 2 of my day later:

Celebrity Triathletes


It's funny the other day it was like a sign from my television, I had decided to start getting in shape to run a triathlon next summer, and on TV there was a segment on TMZ about Terri Hatcher and Mario Lopez doing a triathlon.


At first glance I thought it looked alittle cheesy, Mario with no shirt and Teri stripping down, But really these celebrities are raising money for charity and they are staying in shape, it's nothing for a celebrity to give away alittle of their millions, but to go out and be active good on them.




What do u think?

A nice night for a run...


Well,
I went for a run tonight, instead of going by myself and setting my own pace I went with H.
Well just look at the pic to see how that went!
But in the end it was good, H pushed me to my limit and got me to see the hard work that is ahead, It's sad that since I left training I let my self slip, I really didn't gain too much weight, maybe 5Lbs, but I lost my cardio. So there was points tonight I wanted to quit, I just took a few deep breaths and kept going, and when I was done in a small way I was proud, back at it again tomorrow.

Book giveaway.....

Once you read click here to enter - This Write-up is from the giveaways site.
This is a momentous occasion on "Commitment is Liberating." My first giveaway! I am giving away a copy of Sarah Reinertsen's new book, In a Single Bound: Losing My Leg, Finding Myself, and Training for Life.


I ordered Sarah's book 'used' on Amazon last week (I get all my books as used) and when it showed up it was actually brand new! I read her awesome memoir in just three days. The book is about her amazing story of growing up with a physical disability, overcoming unbelievable adversity and finishing multiple marathons and an Ironman!

I first heard about Sarah after watching her attempt her first Ironman in Kona in 2004. She didn't make the cut-off time for the bike and could not finish the race. But, she is a fighter and she came back in 2005 and kicked butt at Kona, finishing in just over 15 hours.

I really enjoyed Sarah's story and I think all of you would too. You will definitely laugh and you might just cry a bit too. So, with the spirit of giving, I'm going to giveaway my slightly used copy to one lucky reader!

Bikes

Well Yesterday was a rainy day here in Halifax, So as I sat getting bored watching TV I decided to go check out bikes.

I headed to the local bike shop where I knew they knew their stuff and they're always willing to help, I used to get my mountain bike serviced there.

So I walked in and explained to the salesman what I wanted, I explained how my last bike was alittle too small and I needed something alittle bigger, he showed me a bunch of bikes which got me excited, we settled on one that works for me and I thanked him and went my way.

My goal is to sell my motorcycle first then look for a bike, I just wanted to see whats out there.
Off for a run later today,

NHL 10

Well I am still on my vacation,

Yesterday EA sports released NHL 10 and to kick it off right my future brother in law got 6 tickets to a NHL preseason and the whole gang went. It was a good game but not all the starters were playing.


The teams were Ottawa and Florida, Florida had more stars playing then Ottawa, it was a enjoyable game the players were soo fast.

Now today I am sitting in front of the TV playing NHL 10, gotta get out and run later

Vacation


Well I'm On Vacation, I'm not really doing anything for it, but I am relaxing.


I have been trying to plan a trip to the states next cycle that I am off in October but I am hitting alot of road blocks.


I was hoping to go down to California with my brother and watch a NFL football game then take in all the sights, the problem is that we both want to use Areoplan miles to fly there and back, in an attempt to save money. But we can't find a flight into any airport in California, we found one back but none in, so it's not looking good.


I think I'll end up spending the day today looking at other options.

Going for a run....


Well tonight I went for a run, nothing too odd, but I felt alittle different, This run was the start of my road to a Triathlon.


Long I have dreamed about running a Triathlon, to me it is the pinnacle of fitness, and I used to take pride in my fitness but I let that slip. But I have started down the road to getting into shape by setting a goal of completing a Triathlon.


Look for my new site that will keep u updated...
