Getting there...

Went for a 40min run last night (approx 6km)...took it nice and easy and explored the neighbourhood.

I've lived there exactly 11mos to the day, and I'm still not familiar w/ the side streets of the area like I was when I lived w/ my folks.

I hope to build some sort of routine w/ my evening runs now, if my running buddy MF can stick to a set schedule.

My legs are still sore even after light workouts, even though I'm stretching like crazy these days. I'm stretching in the morning, on the subway, at my desk, on the subway on the way home, at the gym, watching TV and still...

I'm aftraid of pumping out a hard legs day for fear of a long recovery.

Stone Cold Steve recommended to me that I try putting seran wrap on them overtop some cream like A5-35.

It's a little uncomfortable and it makes squishing sounds when I walk, but it's all for the better, right?

I've also been applying the guasha shark tool after workouts. I guess you could say that it's working somewhat, as I'm able to pinch a little more off of my legs each day.

I started working out again and my weight was 180lbs. I'm sitting steady at 174lbs. Not too bad.

Unrelated topic, but we went to a cottage in Collingwood this past weekend. My first time up there, and I guess you can say, my first real time away from the city into the country in general. It was a lot of fun, and very relaxing. I can see why ppl loving getting away to them so much. I was able to get a lot of reading done as well as a nice mentally cleansing run.

I would love to sneak in another cottage weekend before the summer is up, or in September or October.

Nothing else too much exciting going on here.

Big weekend coming up - Dave and Victoria's wedding on Saturday, and UFC 100, which will be viewed post wedding reception thanks to PVR.
