Well, now that i've officially been accepted to FLETC (technically pending another credit check and criminal background check, but if the FBI passes you once, and you haven't hacked anyone up and buried them in the yard lately...) with a 90 day window of reporting, i've kicked the personal training into high gear.
SO why even post about something that mundane? Awesomesauce that I am, I get my 90 day notice RIGHT at the beginning of a certain season some of us here in Arizona like to call... Hell... thats right, the Palo Verde, our 'beloved' state tree is blooming, turning anything near one a pretty speckled yellow with pollen. Guess what it does to my lungs?
YAY.. and I get to run for at least 15 minutes in this every other day (and Bike at least 30 minutes on my offdays) at a goal pace of 8.5 minutes per mile.
The part that sucks is my legs feel fine, my heart rate isn't too high, but my lungs feel like I'm being bear hugged by Hulk Hogan when I need to take deep breaths... thankfully it'll all be over the first time we get 2 100 degree days...
