Race weekend!

Spent at a marathon wine club then mildly hungover, which poutine eventually cured.

Yesterday I did Sunday's crossfit: A warm up then 3x3x3x3x3x3x3 cleans, starting at 95 and ending at 145, then back down to 135 for the last set. Then 5 rounds (1 per minute) of 5 dips and 5 knees to elbows.

Frisbee game in the evening.

Exactly a workout

Took Benno to frisbie (my god, he is pretty fun to watch) and while he played I:
Ran 5 K (21:48), 3 minutes rest then did 100 push ups  and 150 squats and cloccked out at 38:52.

Not exactly a workout 2

Sushi for lunch on Friday.

However Saturday sweetie and Timmy and I went out for a bike-ride-park-jogging stroller outing and did quite a bit of moving in the AM. Tried out those bright red shoes. Mmmm.

Sunday I did a crossfit; 3 rounds for time of 50 double unders, 40 sit ups, 30 20lb cleans, 20 pull ups, 10 handstand push ups (progressions). After 24:50 and only 2 rounds a pomegranate mimosa seemed like a MUCH better form of fitness, so I stopped. Cheers!

Not exactly a workout...

...more of a birthday present. Picked up a pair of these on Thursday and they are an instant hit. Get some.

Help from Friends

Frisbee runs with G and co worker S on innovation.

Light warm up then a 2 mile run (15.28 -I won!)
2x 80 m sprints, walking rest, Repeat.
2x 40m sprints, 20m coast, 40 msprints. Repeat.
Kicker (my request) 20m walking lunges, 10 pushups, repeat 3 x. + 10 tuck jumps.

Schprints

Hill sprints!

Prolonged warm up of the usual frisbee type.

Five rounds each 5 minutes long of 5 hill sprints (this is about 25 paces up a 30 degree angle, maybe more) and 20 sit ups. It pretty much went like: 2 minutes for the sprints, short rest, sit ups, a minute and a half rest. Except the last round where I was thwarted by a pit-bull-on-leash and had to wait to run. I finished the sit-ups at the 5 minute mark.

Kicker: Two full field sprints (101 Ken stretch paces) with 2 minutes rest in between. Each was about 13.5 seconds.
Kicker kicker: Walking lunges back across the field (95) non-stop.

Ouch. Went for a run today and it hurt after. Tight hips, hamstrings and the rest! Ultimate should be fun tomorrow! Still popping along to GL to do pump and flow on a regular basis but not to the same extent as before Africa :( Struggling still with the new interface on the iPad. It's not very iPad friendly. Wtf!

Sunny Sunday

Pretty nice here in Qdot.

Just do something day: For time run (what turned out to be 7.5 k) then 10 x 3 pull ups, 10 push ups, 15 squats. Run was 38.32 (a slow 5:06 /km) and total time was 60:25. Quite a grind, pretty pathetic.

And Again

Goodlife:

5 rounds for time: 5x 80 lb press, 5 pull ups, 20 back extensions, 10 walking lunges. Time, 15:32 (which included a long yet not unappreciated wait for an elderly person on back extension device).

Easterlies

Back from sunny Huizhou China. Managed one workout while there, just stuff in the gym then a swim. It was hard coupled with Jet lag and poor diet.

Monday night was Frisbee tryouts. Pretty fun. I ran without knee bracing and it was very good! AND, I am still not a handler.

Yesterday I hit the Goodlife with a warmup, warm up run and 3 rounds for time of  5x 115 lb Squat cleans, 10 knees to elbows and 400 m run. Time was 15:59, which is petty pathetic.
