Weight Workout

This morning was awful. My weight was up, at 165.4, and my resting heart rate was wayyy up, at 68. My throat spent the night filling with gunk, and my head was throbbing as I got up. The temperature outside was 36, but instead of the dew freezing on the windshield, it was the rain that froze, making it hard to scrape.

But you know what? The ibuprofen actually worked and I was functional for most of the day. The weather forecast said rain for the rest of the week, and I almost ran today. Instead, I went to the gym, and now the forecast's been updated: mostly cloudy tomorrow! That makes me happy.

So here's the gym report:

Warmup, w/45lb bar
* Overhead Squat
* Squat
* Good Morning
* Barbell Lunge
* Romanian Deadlift
* Bent-over Row

Workout
* Incline Dumbell Press, 4x6x40lbs
* Neutral Grip Dumbell Row, 5x6x40lbs
* Scaption, 5x6x20lbs
* Incline Lower Trap Raise, 8x6x15lbs

31 minutes, 216 calories burned

More reps, higher weights for 3/4 of the workout, and I didn't start feeling sick again until I was on the way home from work. So tonight it's rest, rest, rest, for tomorrow we run!

09:10 It's raining! Forecast says rain through at least Thursday. "AM Rain" on Tuesday, so I might get away with a dry run in the afternoon. #

11:37 In church for our Christmas service. #

13:03 Rain's coming down good now, but I don't mind. No running today. :) Now lunch is a different story. #

13:24 Time to pick up my wife & kids at the museum. #

13:36 The museum has a 25' tree and it makes me wonder how long it will take to be replaced. That's not a farm tree! #

16:22 Living in CA, my son just didn't "get" the tongue stuck on the pole scene. Maybe he should learn firsthand? #

16:25 Horrible transfer on A Christmas Story. Aside from it being fullscreen (grr), there's film specks throughout. My wife paid 10 bucks. #

16:30 "It's a major award!" #

16:32 "And I know just the place for it: right in the middle of our front room window!" tinyurl.com/65xq89 #

16:39 No one, no one, no one ever is to blame. Take that, Alanis. #

16:58 6 years old and my son can only make it through 45 minutes of A Christmas Story? Whose kid is he? #

19:13 My 4yo just announced that the cat is a perfect singer, just like she is. #

20:31 So earlier today I was talking to my pastor about running, and my mother overheard. She said to him, "What did you do with my son?" #

21:33 New post on my blog: Virtual Run Across America: With today being Sunday, and having a knot .. tinyurl.com/8m9lco #

21:34 Alright, I gotta go to bed. My throat is telling me I might be sick tomorrow morning. I certainly hope not. #
