Shithouse

November 14, 2008 (Night)

Exercise Type: Run

Weather: 40, maybe -- felt COLD

Comments:
Got up early to head to LAX for the UE Symposium. It was OK but I felt SICK all day: cold, tired, low energy. At 1800 I bugged out early to catch a run and maybe lift from the Rec.

Run went well! For 2 in a row, it felt great. I ran the old Shithouse loop, from my old apt. Knee felt 100% 'til about the last 5 minutes -- but by then I was 35min into the run!

The rest of me felt SHITTY though: really tired, achy, and I got the shits -- the "sick shits", too. Yuck. I really felt like I had the flu coming on. Stopped at the Radisson to go, then again back at campus. Eek.

The weight center closed, so I just did circuits in the Rec. Thour and DesRoaches were riding bike up there; sort of awkward. I ignored them but as I was leaving Thour yelled, "BYE JOE". I half-turned to look but otherwise sort of ignored it. Not sure if that was a sincere greeting or a cock-off...

Here's an interesting nugget: last Friday I weighed in at 166.0 on the electronic scale at Gold's. Today, before the run, I weighed in a 159.0! HA! I trust that scale, though, and it was just calibrated in Sept. THEN, after 2 sick shits, I weighed in at 155.8! HAHA! Wow. Not sure what to believe. Showering back at Mitchell, the manual scale confirmed. Hmmm...

I celebrated this fact with a meal at Checker's...then dessert on my way home. I bugged out to EC because of feeling shitty -- thus missing the Sat lab sessions. :|
