Life Does Jed
Ben and I went running along the seawall in Vancouver. It is a beautiful place to run and visit. Now we go eat and see Safe House.
7 mile run through beautiful Vancouver. 10:20 average pace. The only thing that could have been better would have been the company. Oh well, gotta run with who you got.
First Ice Bath Ever
17 miles in 2:57. I thought I was going to run all these by myself on the treadmill, but at mile 2, cantstopcristin saved me and invited me to run with her and her husband, ironmanbrad. Great company and great run. I also decided to partake in my first ice bath. My lovely wife, Sarah, posted some of the shananigans.
Jed’s taking an ice bath. Some memorable quotes so far.
“This is the worst idea ever!”
“My balls are gonna be so cold!”
“I wonder if peeing on myself negates this deal?”
“Hurry Sarah! Look at my phone. I texted some people to see how long I have to do this and I think they texted me back.”
Me: “Anderson, come look at daddy. He’s taking an ice bath.”
Anderson: “Daddy, you aren’t supposed to take a bath with all your clothes on!”
Pictures to follow.
I’m currently in Tulsa at a football coaching convention. Training waits for no one though and I got in my 4 miles in the Marriott fitness center.
So I ate well all day and then got home from work. My wife fixed homemade pizza, which was awesome, and then baked chocolate chip cookies. I was tired and hungry, not a good combo, and ended up eating 7 pieces of pizza and then polished off 3 cookies. Not to mention the fact that I ate 4 spoonfuls of cookie dough before they got baked. This was about 30-45 minutes before my date with the treadmill. Not my brightest plan. For 7 miles and 1 hour and 18 minutes I fought the urge to puke and got my run in. Never again…. Never again.
Long run of week 9 of marathon training. 15 miles.
