Joggling Streak Journal – Day 58
On a quest to joggle at least one mile every day for 1000 days in a row.
Summary: Today, I used my workout as transportation to the blood donor center. It’s a goal to donate blood twice this year and I figured I’d get 50% done early. Not sure if donating blood is a great idea during marathon training, so I do it early. It probably isn’t a problem but I don’t know.
Sidewalks were treacherous. Joggling through snow drifts is tough!
Weather: 14F. Sunny but cold!
Distance: 2.12 mi
Time: 1:41 pm
Run time: 20:26
Listening to: Moby Dick – Chapter 118 – 121
Weight: ?? Forgot to record
Drops: 2 – both the result of slipping on snow drifts
Condition: Felt good. Blood donation stats – pulse 66, temp 96.8, BP = 118/78
Shoes: Old Nike shoes
Did you Run Home too?
I almost blacked out in college because I played racquetball the evening after donating blood.
I ran home about 1.25 miles and took the bus for 0.75 miles. Fortunately, I didn’t pass out. Fell asleep pretty quick that night however.
