Journal FortKnox's Journal: Fax and workout 16
I got 6 calls at my desk phone today from a fax machine.
I have caller id.
So I got out a piece of paper and a marker. I sent them a fax back. I stopped getting faxes.
I'm actually kinda bummed. The note I wrote was polite this time. Was waiting to get faxed again, then I was going to be rude and crude. Too bad.
Did my workout today at 6am. My body doesn't like 6am. My IBS REALLY doesn't like 6am. I did it anyway.
Do I feel energized? Hell no, I'm completely wiped out and barely going along while my stomach is wavering from 'coping' to 'going to puke' all day.
I'm not giving up. Just hoping to get over this 'hump' by wednesday. For the record, its only my second workout. Same as the first, strictly cardio (will work on strength tonight when I can get a PT):
Treadmill, 45 minutes, 3.6mph (brisk walk), on range of hills. Basically it runs in ~3 minute segments. Flat, 1.0 incline, flat 2.0 incline, etc up to 6.0 incline, then a flat, small 2.0, then back flat, then cool down.
I ran track back in high school, so I've always had large thighs and calves. My legs aren't the least bit weak. But damn does my ass still hurt!

Finally, I set the fax modem to answer and accept the fax, so I could get the sender's contact info. It was being sent from a public school and it was a student's discipline record. I called the school and told them what happened (they had switched two digits in the intended number). The w

4) Have fun for next hour of constant action because if you aren't on the field the game can't go on.

Honey, that is the story of my LIFE!! (Except ONE hour is cutting it a bit short. They usually like 2 or 3, at a minimum. And of course, I aim to please...)
Give yourself more time to get into the groove, FK. Baby steps. 45 minutes is a lot, and walking on a grade will kick your ass. And if you manage not to get shin splints, then you're a hell of a lot luckier than I am!!
I recommend mixing up the cardio

I didn't have caller id, but as I worked at company where everything had their own extention I just transferred the fax to the machine and let it print out.
All of the other Solaris systems administrators stared at me in awe that such a thing could be done.
Sigh.
