Good workouts, too!

Hey, thanks for the tunes!

Got in a morning gym trip today. Did a 1 mile run (12:32 - PR, :45 sec off previous best...which was yesterday), plus 10 lap sprints in the pool. Good times...

Are you planning on playing softball again this year?

Pylon

Thanks Billie....actually, I'm about to start cooking dinner. (Venison chili...mmm...)

Trips - I think my softball career is on hold. The new job will have me traveling quite a bit, so I can't commit to a team. Time to work on my golf swing!

Quick trip to the gym this morning, just to run. 1 mile time today was 11:38, a new PR, :54 faster than previous PR from yesterday.

If my calculations are correct, based on the speed increases from day to day this week, I will break the world's record next Thursday, and the sound barrier the day after that. Should be fun!

Seriously, the time improvements are more about endurance than anything. My goal is to get under 10 min (I know, not that impressive, but would be a big breakthrough for me) and then start stretching out the distance.

if I tried to run a straight mile right now I would probably die of lack of air...my nose clogs up while running....do they make anything to help with that?? Nasal strips fall off once I start to sweat

But seriously,, 11:38 for a mile is great!! Much faster than I can run! jb!

Weren't you going to do a cookbook back when???

Pylon

Yeah...since I'm off work, you'd think I could work on that...

Gym day...

WU - run @ 1/2 mile (more on this later)

Leg ext - 190 x 6
SS squats - 185 x 6

calf press - 450 x 20

Swim - 10 lap sprints

So I intended to do a full mile, but lost count of laps. The track is elevated and circles the gym, and some asshat was doing medicine ball throws from the gym floor to the track (with someone there to catch them). The problem is that it is a fairly narrow track, so he was taking up a lot of room, even though they would wait until people passed before throwing. It just struck me as kind of intrusive, and I lost count on lap 7 or 8, so I called it a day and went to lift.

I'm starting to get to use the heavier weights, having sighted in a little on my HIT lifts. Should be good times moving forward.

Also weighed in, down a couple of pounds from last week. I need to reign in my diet a little bit, which will be the next part of work moving forward.

No gym this morning. Fighting off a chest cold, going to give it some rest. Might hit the bike later, we'll see how I feel.

Pec deck - 150 x 10
SS smith incline - 140 x 1

DB pullover - 60 x 10
SS CG pulldowns - 8 plates x 10

Still not happy about the weights, but they will get back in time.

Went to see a screening of Street Kings after. Pass. If I had paid for my ticket, I would have wanted the cash back.
