Thursday Day 11 April 10, 2025 Round 3

-

 Morning

Up at 5:15 electrolytes, quick coffee-protein drink, ezekiel with cc and jelly, roll on lacrosse ball and do mobility before leaving for the run. Out the door-5 min easy, 4x30/30 cadence, 4x30/30 pick up, 1 mile at pace, 5 min easy. The 1 mile time got messed up because I don't know how to use my watch properly. I have to read up on it. 

Before my run, I did all the hamstring exercises. Floss the hammy, roll the TFL, side stretch on the wall, Single leg bridge, slide out bridge, and 90/90 lift. No pain after the run and during the day. That is a good sign. I should find a plan to follow in addition to the Garmin coach. 
Other hamstring to add-roll out bridge on a foam roller, walk out bridge, eccentric hamstring

Dark chocolate      120
double espresso with cream                         100 

Total calories    1900 calories         
I feel like I was tired and ate way too much. I am adding lots of extra calories just in case I did have that many. Overestimating is better than underestimating. Even so, I had a few hard days of training and tomorrow morning I should try to fast until I get to school. I finished eating today at 5:00 so by 7:30 I am good to eat. There really isn't planning to my eating, I just take what I can find. My belly feels super full and I am ready to sleep but it isn't even 6. Yikes. 

Still on my mind
Altra shoes
pelvic floor exercises 
rain coat

Let me tell you about a bear, a skunk, and a hen. Day 68

-
 I am nearing the end of the challenge. One more weekend, 3 days of school, 1 more faculty day, and a lacrosse playoff game. I am a little undecided about whether I will drink on Friday night. I guess I have to see what happens.  Up at 4:47 still tired but I figured I needed to get up to get my walk before it got too hot and muggy  I had toast, 3 eggs, and coffee. Afterwards I took the dogs for a walk. It was already muggy and buggy. Gross. We headed out to the field then turned down icehouse so Ripper could poop in the woods. Well I turned the corner and saw a black thing in the road. I feel like it was a bear. It looked narrow but it was too slow and deliberate to be a dog. We turned and ran the other way. The black spot was still there. Finally when I took a break to walk the dogs pulled me to the right towards a clump of trees. Right there in front of me was a skunk with its tail up ready to shoot. We got away from that before it was too late. THEN a hen skirted acros...

 How do you win the war? With good questions. Lost Tools of Writing has laid out an easy format for asking questions in other words-thinking.  Definition: Define your terms. We can’t understand it if we don’t know what it is. While definitions used to involve at least some thinking (at least alphabetizing and spelling), today’s technology has put digital dictionaries in our pockets. Guess what? By asking the questions “what group does it belong to?” and “how is it different from others in that group?” you and your students will be doing some serious thinking. Comparison: How is X like Y? What differences spring out of this similarity? Are these differences of “a certain kind of thing” or differences of “more/less”, “better/worse”, or “bigger/smaller”? Circumstance: What in the world is going on here? What in the world is going on somewhere else? Relations: What was the cause of X? What was the effect of X? Did this effect in turn cause something else? Just because somethin...
