Five Weeks

Ran through George Wyth with Ruby today.

36 min run ~ Google Earth puts it at about 3.3 miles

Weigh-in: 182 lbs. God DAMN it!

Ran to 2nd and Washington with Ruby. It was getting a little dark for running with Ruby off-leash, but she did a great job. I did snicker at the fact that my route ended up passing me directly in front of the police station, with an unleashed dog. Whoops!

Dunno the time (~30 min) - 3.5 miles

Worked out at the Rec Center again. But I learned one thing: if the Shuffle runs out of battery, I have a harder time with motivation during a workout. Doesn't matter if it's music or podcasts, but having something to listen to makes the workouts easier.

26 min elliptical machine - cardio program
3x10 - 110 lb crunches
3x10 - 90 lb lat pulldown
3x10 - 80 lb leg extension
15 min Stairmaster - course 7

Man, Ruby's a good dog. She stuck right next to me the entire time, for another run.

26 min run - I'd guess the distance to be 2.5 - 3 miles.

Took Ruby for a run today. First time I've run with her; it went really well. This'll be fun.

Run about 20 minutes - not sure of distance; I'd guess around 1.5 - 2 miles.

After a long hiatus, I got a workout in today. Went to the YMCA in Hastings - man, that's a nice facility.

26 min elliptical machine - weight loss interval program
3x10 - 35 lb shoulder press
3x10 - 70 lb lat pulldown
15 min Stairmaster

Also ran around in their maze for several minutes. That's the best workout yet!

Three Weeks In

No workout for several days here, so I didn't weigh in either.

25 min elliptical machine
3x10 - 90 lb crunches
3x10 - 90 lb shoulder press
3x10 - 90 lb leg extension
15 min Stairmaster - course 6

Two Weeks In

3x10 - 80 lb chest press
3x10 - 80 lb leg curl
3x10 - 90 lb abductor/adductor
20 min treadmill - there are only two good Stairmaster machines, and both were taken

Weight check: 181 lb - Sigh. Of course, I ate like crap this week, so it's not surprising.

Quick workout today, crammed in amongst the 100 other things happening today.

25 min elliptical min - weight loss program
10x3 - 90 lb crunches
10x3 - 80 lb incline press

You know when the worst possible time to go to the Rec Center is? 5 PM on a weekday, apparently. Machines are all taken - waiting in line for the crappiest machines makes it hard to keep motivation up...
