Fatty October 4, 2005 Share Fatty GC Founder October 4, 2005 <Fatty, after training for his marathon leg on the road, having not touched the treadmill for exactly a month, lifts a few boxes off the treadmill> TreadMill: Hmph! Fatty: Wha? TM: You heard me. Fatty: Hey, marathon's over, the road has made my leg a little sore, let's get a work out. TM: Just like that, huh? <Fatty rolls his eyes> TM: Look at me I'm all dusty Fatty: It'll shake off, now let's go. <Fatty studies the console...hmmm...Low Intensity...nah...there's Medium Intensity at 30 and 40 minute sessions, and High Intensity at 20 and 30 minute sessions> Fatty: Always worked up a good sweat on the Medium 40, let's do that. TM: Good times...goooood times. <Fatty presses a couple buttons> Fatty: Let's do this! <this one involves some inclines and some jogs....time passes> TM: You don't even look at me anymore while you run Fatty: erm TM: You don't Fatty: You know I'm watching UFC TM: Oh, that's just great, now you're watching TV Fatty: Whatever, besides this is boring TM: I'm gonna pretend you didn't say that <40 minute session ends.....just not what it used to be> TM: What, not happy? Fatty: 2.5 miles...jog and climbs....I'm barely sweating. TM: I'm ignoring you. Fatty: Ok, let's do the High 20, that's a big incline and a nice run. Go go go! TM: Now you're talkin! <20 minutes goes by> TM: Well? Fatty: How about the High 30? TM: You're a machine! Fatty: Um, no, you are. <30 minutes of jogging, up to 6 mph, Fatty finishes and decides that he should stop...was going to give more than 2 days after the marathon to recoop anyways> Fatty: Ok, I'm gonna go now. TM: Maybe tomorrow? Fatty: couple days TM: I can't take this. <Fatty pulls the key out> I'm so amazed. Used to be drenched after the med 40....and I just took that machine through 3 different programs....90 minutes....pwnd. My body is so used to the 6+ miles that, even given the inclines, it wasn't satisfied. Great feeling! I gotta stick with the mill tho, give my ankles and shins some time to recover from the unforgiving pavement for the past month. I've run between 80 and 90 miles in the past 4 weeks outside. Probably going to give the track a run and get back down to the towpath (crushed limestone) after a week or two. Definitely don't need some sort of stress fracture or something. Gotta get rid of the dull pain. Now get out there and move! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrDuke October 4, 2005 Share MrDuke Member October 4, 2005 So what do you do to kill the boredom when you run 6-8 miles on the mill? TV? Ipod? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brillow_Head October 4, 2005 Share Brillow_Head Member October 4, 2005 (edited) I wish I was a runner....I'd love to be able to pull 6 miles. By the way, if your treadmill actually talks to you....seek help. Edited October 4, 2005 by Brillow_Head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appalachian_fox October 5, 2005 Share appalachian_fox Member October 5, 2005 Next you must play CS:S while running. It may be harder to get a headshot, though, but you'll put your time in. That or you should console into every server and kick foulmouthers while you run like a madman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
