No I’m not talking about the 2001 thriller starring Denzel Washington and Ethan Hawke. I’m talking about training for the Platte River Triathlon. Whoa side track for a second here. Now that I mention Ethan Hawke a thought hit me. Is it just me or does that guy have that same 14 year old Mexican kid crustache in EVERY single movie he’s in? Sorry I don’t know why I thought of that. It’s what I think of whenever I see that guy. Anyway I started my training regimen yesterday and I was less than impressed with my results. The dog and I ran 1.3 miles before I had to stop and couldnt go any more. A little less than a quarter of the way that I will need to go in the race and I didn’t exactly make the greatest time either. I guess it isn’t completely terrible considering the fact that I haven’t run in 10 years. It will get easier the more I do it I guess and there’s a reason I haven’t started doing it earlier. It’s because it always sucks and hurts really bad the first couple weeks. Oh well the dog really likes doing it so it’s all good.
