Since yesterday I ended up working through lunch, when I normally would work out, Monday became a rest day. That was just fine and dandy for me, after Sunday's TRT!

So everything's shifted by a day. I ended up working out after work. Today's workout:

Warmup, 3 sets of 5 each, 45lb bar for weight
* Overhead squat
* Squat
* Good morning
* Lunge
* Romanian deadlift
* Bent-over row

Workout
* Incline dumbell press, 3 sets of 5, 30lb dumbells
* Neutral-grip dumbell row, 3 sets of 5, 35lb dumbells
* Scaption, 4 sets of 5, 20lb dumbells
* Incline lower trap raise, 5 sets of 5, 10lb dumbells

A little late, I know, but the past few days have been extremely busy at work.

Sunday was the first leg of the Tahoe Rim Trail! We picked the first to be the shortest: 12.2 miles. This gave everyone a chance to see firsthand how the longer trails would be and determine whether or not they could make it.

Who are we? The Sacramento Hiking Meetup Group, of course. Meetup's pretty neat, it's a way for people with similar interests to gather and have meetings, or in this case, go hiking. There are also a few local Meetup groups for backpacking.

So back to the TRT. The segment we did was the shortest, at 12.2 miles. The others are all over 20 miles, one of which is 30! The 30-miler we'll be doing as an overnight backpacking trip.

If you're used to reading topo maps, here's how it was:



I had a great time, although it was a bit gruelling. The next trip is still over three weeks away... BUT... between then and now is a trip to Grasshopper Peak in Humboldt Memorial Day weekend, and then Half Dome on June 12!

I can feel the soreness now. Here's a picture of me on a peak along the rim:
