Week 12

[Antonio247]

Week 12. 2nd -8th February 2004. My weight is 81.8 kilos, 200 grammes less than last week. Not much but at least I haven´t gained any weight.

Tuesday. I got up early this morning at 5.30 so I decided not to go to bed again. I was looking forward to going for a run but as it was too early I decided to do some abdominal workouts at home before leaving. Then, I went down and before crossing the avenue I heard the noise of a woman´s shoes but I couldn´t see her. I thought that when she saw me with that look she would jump frightened. Fortunately, she didn´t. She was a young woman who seemed to be from a South American country. Then, I crossed towards the park and did some stretching . Later, I went along the sea front slowly and continued as far as the petrol station near the river in 22 minutes. I went back the same way in nearly 22 minutes again. I completed one more minute to do 45 minutes and about 6 kilometres. Then I did some stretching including more abdominal workouts. The morning was nice. Actually, the temperature clock showed 14º Celsius at 6.45 a.m. As usual, I met some regular early morning runners. The sky was starry and I felt fine. I wish I could get to the marathon without any injuries and feeling so well but it´s still a long way to Madrid.
