Gotta Run

08 February 2011

I woke up before my cellphone alarm rang.   Weather was pretty cool.   Off I went at 6:15 am in my (formerly one of my brothers') long sleeved Fred Flintstone t-shirt and shorts. 

Squeak .. squeak... squeak went my sneakers as I brisk walked towards Coolong Park.  (Something is wrong with my right shoe.  It squeaks.) 

Squeak-squeak-squeak went my sneakers as I started to run when I crossed the street. 

I am sticking with walk-run combination for the moment, just to get the blood pumping.  My legs aren't ready for long runs yet.  Maybe in a couple of days.

I got home before 7am with enough time to shower and still catch the 7:20 bus to the City.  Problem was I had drank two big glasses of water after my run.  In spite two trips to the bathroom before leaving the house, I was busting by the time the bus got to Sydney (about one hour from our place). 

I knew I wouldn't make it to the office.  I felt as if my bladder was going to burst.   So I made a bee-line to the Ladies Room at the Queen Victoria Building. 

Maybe next time I should just drink one glass instead of two.
