The Fallen; Running to catch that wagon again...

"Out of the darkness you stumble into the light; fighting for the things you know are right." Stan Bush -Dare-

I hate being told I'm not strong enough. My bike is broken. I don't have the right tools to fix it. How can I be expected to be able to fix it properly? My luck it's permanently fucked up. Besides, I can do a lot of things people can barely fathom. I can practically kick a six foot man square in the face without even jumping. But no one really knows that beyond my new friends.

So today I took the skateboard for a ride. It takes some getting used to but it's nice. Hard work too, and now I just did a 500cal session on the DDR.

As for my title, I haven't run in a long time now. I fell off the bandwagon. Beyond Taekwon-do I haven't been overly active. I've been very bad with my eating too. Anyway, starting on the 9th all that is going to change. I'll officially be allowed to use the University gym, pool, courts, and SCC(Strength and Conditioning Center) again. I know it's silly to wait, I just like running there more than in my own neighborhood. Well, it's never JUST running there either. I row, and strength train, and practice some of my Taekwon-do things. For the Black belt test there's three components. Physical, Written, and Theory. The physical test is crazy fro what I've hear. You have to have good endurance, and speed, as well as strength in order to get through it.

Anyway, my first day of school is also a Taekwon-do night, which should be interesting, but I should be able to do it, because I doubt I'll get much exercise on the weekends with work and all. Maybe I'll even get some games in on the courts this semester, or even some laps in the pool! I'm very excited to improve and finally get serious about my Tele-10 training as well. I want to try and run the entire thing without stopping.

Hoping things will all fall into place for this new month of a new year,
