Fastest run ever by one lil Aussie Ninja

in #exhaust5 years ago (edited)

I just finished a 3.8km run that lasted about 0hh:17mm:44ss !

Dang it! I forgot to take a photo. It's pretty awkward with so many gym people around, but I was keen to get a selfie passed out on a treadmill.

I don't know if I've ever set a record for my usual 3.8km runs... I think my fastest might have been at 24 or 25 minutes... but today on the treadmill I did it in just under 18 minutes. It was super hard, and I wasn't sure I was going to make it... but bragging to my #SteemBesties really helped get over the line... that and the fear that I'd fling off the back of the treadie if I let up for even a second.

I even did it without having eaten for 23ish hours... no idea if that helped or hindered... but I've only been eating once a day all week and I'm really liking it. I've just been eating lunch, but today moved to dinner because my lunchtimes were getting a bit rushed with gymming and changing and driving all over the place and eating... but the benefit to eating at lunch is that by bedtime I'm fully settled... I definitely found I was waking up better and more energetic not having eaten the night before... so we'll see. I think once I'm back home I'll work out about 3pmish and eat after that. That'll give me some mad refueling but enough time to be great by bedtime.



Weirdly, I haven't lost any weight at all...

That sounds pretty impressive! And I nearly choked on laughter imagining you flying cartoonishly off the back of the treadmill if you couldn't keep the pace up, that would have been hilarious (for other people) XD

Thanks Ryi. I don't know if it's actually impressive... but it was really hard and I was pretty proud.

I did actually chuckle about this as I was running… which ironically nearly made lose balance... but I was secretly hoping that if I did get flung off, it'd be into one of those massive beefy guys with all the biceps and none of the leg muscles... of which there are many at this gym.

I thought it was pretty impressive XP

Pffffft lol XD

Oh my god.

Is there a Comment Reply of the Week award on Steem? Because... this!

I'm glad my stupid comics/sketchies are enjoyable :D

Thanks!

They're not mine though... it's just the default image for the @exhaust app.
Looking at it closer though, is this guy running in his undies? In the desert? Is he escaping Vegas?

I know ;) But yes, he ran the house in Vegas and got caught cheating, both in cards and in his relationship. He's running from his lover and the security guards. Isn't that why you run?

Ah, excuse me good sir, but I'd ask you not to cast aspersions on my fine character!

I only run to escape from my mortal enemies, the samurai... which is easy when they're walking around in their goofy armour, but much harder when they're on horseback. That's why I need the power legs!

Hmm, now that I think of it... they only started chasing me after I accidentally lost the warlords daughter/my date in a game of dice... dangit… it is the only reason to run.
