Thursday, Saturday, Sunday

Thursday:
I started doing my outside training.  I found a 20lb log that I used to pickup from a squat position, put it above my head and slammed it down to the ground as hard as I could.  I really felt it as I ended up with a splinter.....I felt it in my chest and arms.

I did 60 24" box jumps onto my retaining wall which I plan to keep on doing to be ready for Footerest.

Saturday:
I got a terrible 3 mile run in the hills of Upper St. Clair in hot weather.  I ran about 10 min miles...I have not run hills in about a year so that was a change...

Sunday:
Leg day, 120 lunges with 25lb kettle-bell and 60 squats with the same 25lb kettle-bell.  I am definitely going to feel that tomorrow.

4 Mile Run

Well that was terrible....I did a 4 mile run yesterday and wow was I sore later that night.  I am not exactly sure where to go from here yet.  Should I bump it up to 6 miles are stick with 4 for a few days?  I will probably shoot for 6 next week.

I signed up for the Brentwood 5K on July 4th....nothing special but Kelly is running in it with me so that should be fun.

I also plan on signing up for the Erie 1/2 marathon again...13.1 seems so far right now.

Day 3

Yes I missed posting day 1 & 2 but that is OK.

I have started a really strict high protein diet, or as I call it eating healthy.  I am taking in around 185-200g of protein a day.  I finally ran after yesterday, only 2 miles but it felt good.  My chest injury and leg injury seem to have healed.  I am shooting for 4 miles today....I hope that goes well...of course I forgot my headphones today :-(

I am starting to setup my own cross-fit area in my backyard.  I have no idea how that will go but I want to do something different then just going to the gym.
