Fun run

For trying to get my legs and feet back into running shape, recovering from my plantar wart procedures and getting used to my new orthotics, todays run was a really fun one. I feel that I'm up to about 70% of my old running self with both my physical and cardio aspects of the run feeling much better. It was also a beautiful morning to run...scents of spring flowers in the air, lots of people along the way smiling and saying hi and some beautiful scenery as I ran around Portage Bay and a small portion of Lk. Washington. The only bummer about running around Portage Bay is the traffic exhaust, especially at busy times of the day. Time to look for some cleaner-air runs I think.

Another great night of boxing. This time we added the right uppercut to our list of hits. I have the jabs down, my left hook looks a little goofy, but the right uppercut feels great. Any grace I thought I had when I first started the boxing class has quickly dwindled and I'm sure I look more than a little awkward as a boxer. I need to become much quicker and much more agile. But...its still one of the best workouts I've had, so I'll be sticking to it for a while. My jumproping and speed bag are getting a lot better too.
