Two Thumbs

Posted 06-27-2010 at 02:40 PM by Jeff
What has two thumbs and just ran 8.1 miles?

This guy.



This PVC/PAC stuff can be, if not conquered, at least mastered.

Six years ago I was having 5-10,000 PVCs, every single day for a year.

I'm about 10 minutes post-run, I lost about 5 pounds of water weight in the run, just scarfed down two large pears and a dozen strawberries and a quart or so of water, heart rate at about 78 bpm, a few PACs on inhale here and there, but...

Call it a mid-life crisis. Call it a grand cardiovascular experiment. Call it a middle-age guy growing tired of waiting until next year before he finally gets off his ass and starts making himself trim and healthy.

You can even call it a benefit of popping antidepressants like Tic-Tacs (ok, I don't really do that, but you get the idea).

Whatever you call it, I'm getting myself into shape, and for those of you who've seen the Rocky movies, I feel like Rocky in Rock IV....
