Weight Workout

Today went pretty well at the gym. I ended up not even leaving for the gym until 3pm! I got lucky though, at least I was able to go.

I also need to apologize, lately I've just been so busy, not only have I not been able to blog as I had been, but I haven't been able to post responses either. I suppose it's just that time of year.

Warmup, 30 secs each, 3 circuits
* Jumping Jacks
* Split Jacks
* Squats
* Alternating Lunges
* Mountain Climbers

Workout
* Deadlifts, 3x7x115lbs
* Close-grip Bench Press, 3x3x135lbs
* Hammer Curls, 3x5x35lbs

Tomorrow's a 12-mile long run @ 9:37 - 9:52. No problem.

Tempo Run - 5 miles

Today's goal was a 5-mile tempo run @ 8:22 - 8:37. I'm happy to report that I nailed it, burning 608 calories in the process.



Mile 1: 8:19.52
Mile 2: 8:17.37
Mile 3: 8:21.74
Mile 4: 8:30.67
Mile 5: 8:32.51



I walked the rest of the way back to work, about 1/4 mile.

Also, can I say that I ran 5:05 per mile? For the last .86 seconds of course. That's 11.8mph for 14.85 feet! I was so proud of myself!

Gym day tomorrow. 12-mile long run on Saturday.

06:14 As a dad, it's my moral obligation to bug my kids as much as possible. #

06:15 To that end, I just sang the Feliz Cumpleanos (sp) Dora Happy Birthday song to my newly-7yo son. #

08:45 I love Fark headlines. #

09:43 Oh man, today's too cold to run. High's supposed to be 58. Shame. #

09:43 /me drips sarcasm #

09:43 Today's a gym day. :) #

09:45 Twitter has a 2000-follower limit? #

11:08 Living to be 80 is impressive. Living 28 more years after being shot IN THE HEAD, living to 80... that's amazing. #

12:16 Thinking about Lost, wishing I was watching tonight's episode instead of putting off going to the gym. #

13:37 STOP THE PRESS! GNC chocolate caramel protein powder actually tastes good! #

15:10 Back from the gym #

20:10 After 13 hours, I'm going home. Hurry, hurry, gotta watch Lost! Oh wait, it's been DVR'ed *AND* Tivo'ed, and will soon be on the computer. #

20:10 Mmmm, burning Tivo'ed shows to DVD a year before they're released. #

20:34 Is it racist to find the heavily accented Indian cashier humming along to country music humorous? #

20:57 RIP Billy Powell of Lynyrd Skynyrd :( #
