Grinding it out.

Got in 6 mile run on Wednesday and 25 miles on the bike last night. I mixed up our run start time this morning so I was solo for 11 miles at Discovery park. I didn't feel to bad but my right foot feels pretty tight right now.

I'm weak

Nothing to exciting to report. I bailed on Running the Eugene marathon last week, my top excuses were the long drive and $140 late registration fee. I did get out for a 10+ mile run Saturday morning and got 8.5 miles in yesterday. Anessa and I had a big week of Softball, we won all 4 games played. Been golfing a couple days a week!

Just the facts

5.6 mile run at lunch. Felt great, no watch but I was cooking the last couple miles. 90 minute pool work out after work. Got some great pointers and ran drills. After swimming... Softball double header. Played ok, ripped my leg up a bit sliding and I got drilled in the back sliding into 3rd.

Tired now :-)

First day of Cheryl's training program!

Got a 4 mile run in before work this morning. I must be taking this thing seriously to get up that early! It was a beautiful morning running along the canal as the sun came up. I also spent 1.25 hours in the gym tonight. 30 minutes on the stair climber (intense) and 45 minutes of lifting with some stretching and core mixed in.

I will get my swim in tomorrow Cheryl!

Skiing or Golf?

Getting some extra shut eye made the decision for me. Waited till 2:30pm to tee off and managed to avoid the snow and all the other weather craziness. shot an 89 at Jefferson (41 on the back) and got some exercise walking the course.

Did some lifting and stretching today at the gym. Tomorrow starts the new training program!
