WolfDreamer Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 My grandfather passed away almost three weeks ago. For the first week and at the tail end of the last challenge I didn't feel like doing much of anything. This morning, I woke up early, went to my knees in prayer, read some scripture, walked barefoot and shirtless with my dog out into the morning cool air, and did 10 burpees. I started laughing around burpee number 7 because I actually missed this feeling. Then I took my dog back inside, put on a shirt, and went for a run, still barefoot. I ran 3.35 miles in 30:47. My average speed was 6.5 mph, with my top speed at 11.3 mph. My pace was just above 9 minutes per mile with about 162 steps per minute. Most of all, it felt great. I think I'm ready to get back to it.
