A post, a post, my kingdom for a post.

So first off, I thought I was being a funny, wise-acre by making my name Mix Master Shizzle P. but as it turns out it not only applies to my posting on this site but also to any other other blog I happen to post a comment to. So I feel a little bit an idjiottt right now--or would if I weren't giggling so hard.

As far as walking is concerned I completed the "Inaugural Portland Marathon Training For Two Blogger 3K Walk." (I told the organizers the title was too long but they wouldn't budge on that one--apparently the trophies were already engraved.) Anyway it was not bad. I have better walks. This one had lousy scenery, the highlight being the dust collecting in the sill of the window nearest my treadmill. On the upside I didn't have to don snow boots.

My immediate goal is simply to make walking a daily habit. I am not too worried about increasing speed or endurance so much as just getting into a schedule routine. Once that is better established I will kick off the training schedule in earnest.

Details:
  • Location - Treadmill at mi casa
  • Distance - 1.8 mi
  • Speed - 3.2 mph
  • Incline - 2.0
  • Supplemental Flavoring - The movie "Stardust"
