Yesterday was a vacation day for me so I went to the gym around noon and lifted weights. Very good. Went up in everything this time (even those stubborn pec flys). There’s a hint of soreness today, but tomorrow is when the real pain comes.
Tonight I have another 2 miles and crosstraining. [...]
Totally screwed up the template. Fortunately, I have it saved. Just need to rewrite all the links and stuff. Damn.
OK, blog rule #1: Do not change the template using the premade templates unless you want to retype everything you put in it.
Ok, all fixed now (I think I lost 1 link).
But this time I need to change it in a major way. Mondays are always rest days, but Tuesday nights I always have something at 7:00 pm and for some reason I can never get out of work early on Tuesday. What is it about Tuesday?!
Yesterday somebody scheduled a meeting from 4pm-5pm. [...]
Its about 138F here today and the AC in my truck is broken. My dashboard is melting onto the floor. I think some repairs are in order.
I think this is a sign to get myself ready for hot weather training. I’m going to need to do more and more running outside and [...]
One hour of crosstraining today on the bike, stepper and stepmill.
My shin was kinda twingy during it so I’m glad tomorrow is a rest day. I brought some ice in the car and chilled my left shin on the way to the store, and then did the right one (just to be sure) on [...]
I ran 3 miles at the gym today. I had wanted to run at the park while my son rode his bike but it looked like rain this AM and I didn’t want to be 2 miles from the truck and have it start to pour. I can handle being wet but 6 [...]
Wednesday was weights day. Very nice, went up in just about everything. The old pecs had some trouble on the fly machine. Some days are better than others I guess. I think I go through it all too fast. It should take me an hour. Slow down.
I added 40 [...]
Monday was rest day. So I rested and tried not to pig out. I rested at least.
I ran my two miles tonight but didn’t have time to get my cross training in. I want to make my workouts last 1 hour, whether its running or crosstraining or whatever, so I’m trying to [...]
as a friend from England used to say. Ran 3.0 miles this morning and it was a breeze. Over before I knew it. I could have easily run farther but I want to stick with the plan so my shin doesn’t get killed again. It felt crampy for the first mile [...]
My son asked a question a few years ago that kinda stuck with me. We were talking about colors and he asked:
“If you have a red ball and you turn off the lights, is the ball still red?”
I wasn’t sure how to answer. My first thought was yes, its still red, you just [...]
