The stats below is from my jog yesterday morning. I can’t really say I haven’t had time to blog because I had like 7 blog posts in the past 2 days. I admit it. I was just too lazy to blog about my jog. Here’s my stats…

The jog started out fine. I was going at about an 8:30 pace, but things quickly turned sour. Less than half an mile in, I started feeling the ankle that had been bothering me. I could’ve cut my jog short and just turn around then, but I didn’t. 
Bad idea. Around an mile and a half in, the pain became unbearable. I had to slow to a walk. Looks like I can’t jog for another week…
Feeling fat, I wanted to work out again today. I wanted to run, but there’s no way my ankle would let me. So I went swimming today. I had a lackluster first 800m. I took 2-3 5 second breathers. Then, another swimmer jumped in my lane. It’s funny how a little competition can really motivate you. He probably wasn’t racing me, but I was certainly racing with him. 
It wasn’t really a fair race. In terms of speed, he was probably only a little bit slower than me, but he had to take a break every 100 meters or so. I had no problem lapping him a couple times. My goal was just keep lapping him. After the swimmer jumped in, I did 750m, nonstop. It’s amazing what a little motivation can do! I wanted to do 1750m today, but the pool was closing, so I could only get 1550 in. O well, next time… GO ME!
