The best part of that movie was the end. No! Not the ending….the END! When the freakin thing was over! The second best part was the part I managed to sleep through. I guess I shouldn't have expected anything else, but it was just a one hour, forty-one minute, commercial. I deluded myself that with it being 3D it may still be fun, but as I said---I deluded myself. Usually I enjoy going to kids movies, but alas, this one scored about a 1.3 out of 10. Even the Russian judge would have to be honest about this stinker!! Of course the theatre was packed, which proves that the marketing to our kids continues to succeed.
Or maybe I'm just being a grouch like Will Ferrell when he first appeared in the movie. I was actually glad to see him, because I knew he was only in it for the last 10 minutes.
And if indeed I'm being a grouch I'm blaming it on frustration with my training. I'm pretty discouraged today. I'm hurting everywhere, and my energy levels seem terribly low. My 3 1/2 hours on the trainer was lame, and my achilles is way sorer than I hoped it would be today. I gotta keep working on it, but right now it feels a bit hopeless….at least for the Bay Race which I planned to do with Roo. It's only 7 weeks away, and if I can't run long next week, I will make the decision to be a spectator.
But at least some one's out there running. Roo did 28 kms yesterday in this crap! Also Odd John and Grampa Brett completed the Hypothermic Half Marathon in Sarnia today. Kudos brothers!!
As a bit of an aside, I have agreed to drive to London for the next 4 days to receive one hour treatments in something called craniosacral therapy (CST). Look it up! Friends of ours had forwarded my name as a potential candidate to help a practitioner do a bit of a study. He wants to work with an athlete..lmao!! I had never heard of it before, and after checking it out on the net I'm just a wee bit sceptical. Regardless, he seems like a very sincere man, and I intend on keeping an open mind. Stop laughing!! I can keep an open mind. Besides, I'm pretty sure it can't hurt.

I was gonna ask what craniosacral therapy is because I'm lazy, but I guess I'll go look it up...
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised about your reaction about the Lego Movie. The movie has been getting great reviews from critics who call it well-written and wickedly funny and such. I'm looking forward to seeing it with Quincy. I'm sorry it wasn't a good experience for you!
Don't get too discouraged about training - one day is one day. You've got many more ahead!
Love,
Michael
