[Diary Entry: 7/7/05 - "We shall never forget"]
You see, for the first-time-ever, I actually went for a proper "Run" - something I had been planning to start doing all-Summer, back in May, but just never got around to doing it.
I was dreading it, I suppose... The thought of running so-far in the hot-sun, just to get in better-shape - when I'm not even in bad-shape now!
But I'm glad I finally got around to doing it yesterday, and it was a lot "easier" than I had expected, actually.
I reckon I did about four-and-a-half-miles within the hour-or-so I was out for... And that is why I can barely walk today!
My legs hurt all the way down the back, and the muscles just above my knee-cap feel like they're about to burst or something!
I HATE stairs, right now! Walking up them isn't really too bad. There's a little pain there, but it's going down them when it all really starts to 'burn'!
I'm supposed to be playing football later with some mates, but there's no way I'll be able to do it now (before they go on Holiday tommorow) - especially seeing as I have to cycle there and back! :(
But for someone who hasn't done anything like that since Year 11 PE lessons (some 3-years-ago), I'm dead-chuffed with myself. And I'd do it again, if only I wasn't in so-much pain. :D
(Tommorow, maybe...?)
Aside from the pain, I feel great, though. Doing this quite regularly should do 'wonders' for me in many-ways (...providing I haven't got to work or anything the next day!).
You really are "somewhere else" when you're running hard - just like that guy said in The Animatrix. That's why enjoy doing things like this - to get away from it all, in a world of your own.
The worst part's having a cow watching you pee when you're halfway through it and desperate to go in the nearest hedge... I hate cows! I remember passing a huge mess of "muck" spread-across the road, which may me almost throw-up as it was all I could breathe-in.... :S
But I've finally ordered Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, and I've also ordered one of those BB Guns (God knows why!) from SR, and have chosen the razor/shaver-thing as my Free Gift.
Now I've just gotta ask `her´ about the work Christmas Party and to speed-up-time so I can pass my driving-test on the 3rd December.
(Must re-start lessons again, also...!)
I'm still hoping they'll decide to put some of their players choice games ni the catalogue. But I won't hold my breath.
Gloomlyness.
I've still not seen anything new available since stuff sold out originally.
Have I just missed everything?
:D
I am famous.
