Jogging (Treadmill) 20:48 intensity: (10:00 @2) + (10:48 @3) 3.5 km (5:57 / km) +35m 5:40 / km

Mild enough to be outside, however preferred the control and hence discipline of the treadmill. Joined the New Year's resolution crowd and broke in some new Ravennas. First mile 10m/m with second around 9:05 m/m. Woo such speed :)
Lungs good, but pulse a tad on the high side for effort (hit 150). Still at POD19 probably only just eliminated the remains of the lipophilic anesthesia agents. Otherwise feel the recovery is going well.
Tempted to run a 600m TT at an indoor meet (St Thomas) tomorrow, but that will be premature and result likely disapointing - wouldn't want to see anything over 2:00)

Stretching 12:00 [1]

Legs with roller and hip drills, bridges and clams (latter 2 exes apparently good supplement for pubococcygeus et al).

Walking 28:00 [1] 2.4 km (11:40 / km)

Temps ok to walk the dogs (even though they love the cold I don't walk them below 20F or above 80F)

Note

And on the subject of dogs that love frigid temps ...

Note

10.5 km and 13,700 steps for the day without need for an afternoon snooze.

Friday Jan 2, 2015 #

Walking warm up/down (Treadmill) 14:30 [1] 1.6 km (9:04 / km) +16m 8:38 / km

Half mile before and after jog

Jogging warm up/down (Treadmill) 10:10 [2] 1.6 km (6:21 / km) +16m 6:03 / km

A mile jogeroo. Felt Ok but not going to push it yet

Stretching 5:00 [1]

Legs with roller- things have stiffened up a bit

Strength 20:00 [2]

Hip drills then 3x12 easy core with bridges, ham curls, planks (1 min) then upper body with bi, tri and rows, finishing with walking lunges (all3x12)
Short and sweet - following a program of low volume and hopefully consistency.

Walking 30:00 [1] 2.75 km (10:55 / km)

Ending the day at 11,000 steps and 8km

Thursday Jan 1, 2015 #

Walking 35:00 [1] 3.1 km (11:17 / km)

POD 17 and going pretty well.

Snowshoe 32:30 [2] 3.0 km (10:50 / km) +45m 10:05 / km

Petty mild out. Just cruising along happily doing some Kegels.

Note

As a physician I believe I learnt to ask the right questions and apply (or not) evidence-based Medicine. As a patient I am learning the things they don't tell you. Knowledge with context is empowering. I might have to write a book.......

Wednesday Dec 31, 2014 #

Walking 45:00 [1] 4.2 km (10:43 / km)

More active day. Rugged up and got outside. Should've snow shoed but was persuaded otherwise- probably a good decision.

Note

A Knighthood in the New Years honors for former PFE colleague Simon Campbell who led chemistry efforts for a certain PDE5 inhibitor. Recall playing many a 5 a side soccer game with him :)

Tuesday Dec 30, 2014 #

Walking 24:00 [1] 2.0 km (12:00 / km)

An all round uncomfortable day. At least rid of it! Next visit 3 mos.
Had to fess up to a professionally intimate knowledge of a certain class of pharmacologic agents born some 20 years ago now (named patent holder amongst other things). Strange how life comes around!

Note

Binge watched (6 hours yikes) "A place to Call home", a very good Aussie drama set in the post WWII period. Move over Downton Abbey, this is way better!

Monday Dec 29, 2014 #

Walking 34:00 [1] 3.0 km (11:20 / km)

Trying not to stir things up too much. Ready to lose my "friend" tomorrow!

Sunday Dec 28, 2014 #

Walking 36:00 [1] 3.2 km (11:15 / km)

Paint seeking outing (restoration project proving troublesome to find match)
