Shin Splints suck… a lot… I really wanted to go running today, but I wasn’t able to because my shins are still aching from the last time. I did go for a long walk though.

I’m back from my run for the day, but I didn’t last nearly as long as I have been. When I figure out how, I’ll be posting graphs of my workouts. I’ve been doing the Couch-to-5k Running Plan because I thought it sounded feasible for me. I’m actually repeating the first week because I’m starting from zero, so I figured I need to start slowly. Last night I decided to go for a run, and I had a great run for a full 30 minutes, while today, after 14 minutes or so, my shins started hurting so bad I could barely walk. I’m not sure why, but I guess I’ll have to skip running tomorrow to let my shins rest.
Edited: Ok I figured out how to post an image of the graph. As you can see, i had to turn around halfway through and walk back, then the sensor fell out of my shoe and stopped the workout.
For some reason I enjoy running more when its dark out. I’m about to head out and go running for 40 minutes. Tomorrow I’m going to get the Nike+ iPod Sport Kit so I can keep track of my progress better as I continue to get in better shape. I think it would be awesome if I knew some other people starting out in their running to compare progress. Alright, enough procrastinating.
I ran across Traineo the other day, and since I’m trying to get my weight down to something healthier, I decided to sign up. On the site I found another guy in dallas who’s got a blog all about his weight loss. Check out FatBoyDiaries.com. While you’re at it, here is my profile. Why don’t you join and become my motivator?
