Yesterday I thought it had mostly finished raining so I tried to go out for an adventure and it was still sprinkling a little bit and then I got like half a mile away from where I live and it started raining heavier again... :\
I didn't want to get completely soaked so I tried to run for pretty much the first time since the whole botulism thing... And it was more like jogging than running and extremely difficult, lol... But, it was a wonderful workout.
Also... There was actually one other time when I was in rehab that I ran a little bit, but it was a bit different as I was on the Zero G machine which is like a million dollar machine that helps people who have been paralyzed or who have other serious injuries learn how to walk again and I couldn't have really fallen down on the ground if I wanted to because the machine was holding me up.
Anyways back to the story... I still got pretty soaked and was frustrated about that, yet tried to find the bright side of it and was grateful that I got pushed out of my comfort zone to work my body in a way that I hadn't really done yet since getting sick!
When I got home I was actually so inspired that I continued the workout and did some shadowboxing, squats and horse stance until my legs were pretty much "done" and now I'm pleasantly sore today.
I'm not really a big "runner" for various reasons, though I do think it will be good for me to get out and try to run more often...
I kinda have to start over and rebuild my body and I think running more often will be helpful to get me back to where I was or perhaps eventually even stronger than I was!
Especially sprinting when I get strong enough... I used to sprint when younger and it's quite an effective exercise if you do it right.
So... I didn't get to go on the adventure I wanted... But, it ended up being a very rewarding experience nonetheless!
Also, this picture included is from last year when I was out doing night photography with my father. This one came out particularly cool in my opinion!
Not totally sure what the lines are... I think they are just stars that are blurring as I was zooming in/out to try to get a weird effect, however I'm just a bit puzzled by why the rest of the stars aren't like that and only some of them are?
Quite a dramatic and beautiful picture though from my perspective. I really love nature and I keep realizing how glad I am to still be here to be able to experience it!
Anyways. That's it for me today, peace and best wishes! <3 👽 🤗 🧙 🦋
I hear ya with the cardio. I have an elliptical out front that keeps starring me down. I need to hop back on it. I mean its no zero gravity machine...
Oh? I see. I used one of those in the rehab place and they are pretty nifty! And lol, yeah... Not quite a zero gravity machine, but... It can help in some similar ways! I hope you get to it if you want to. :D
Between now you and @steevc I am getting pretty motivated to start up some cardio!
Happy to hear I can help offer some motivation. :) I hope it works out well for you if you do it!
Well trying to do 70 comments a day isn't helping🤪😄
I see. That's a lot. I commend you for your efforts. Maybe you could find a way to set it up where you do some comments and then do some exercise and sort of create a pattern or something and mix the two things together?
The star streaks are probably due to the long exposure and the rotation of the Earth.
Yeah. I figured that, I think my main question is why some of them are lines but the majority of them are not? I'm sure there's some scientific answer that eludes me, but I'm just not sure why some are doing it and not the rest...
That's a great photo, enjoy the last of sun whilst the dark has a great star shooting across.
Glad to hear you're back on the mend!
