I decided to take Saturday off, and good thing because Tim and I moved all of the furniture in the living room and we started all the prep work to paint the living room.
Sunday, I got up bound and determined to get in a run. I'm feeling behind in my mileage for the marathon training. I wanted to get in at least 5 miles and hopefully 7. I set out feeling really, really good and decided to go for 10. But since I decided thatduring the run, I wasn't as prepared as I normally would have been and had no food with me at all. The first 5 miles felt great. I turned around to complete the 2nd half of the run and started to feel the bonk coming on in mile 6. Getting to mile 7 was a real struggle. From there, I walked and took a short cut home but was not disappointed getting 7 miles of running and 2 miles of walking!
Today I met Dawn at 5:20 for our jog to XFit. The WOD today was all upper body. We did "JT" (what Hazel did last week). 3 rounds for time of 21-15-9 reps of handstand push-ups, ring dips, and push-ups.
I did my handstand push-ups kneeling on a box, the ring dips were also standing on a box, providing a little support, but I did "normal" push-ups instead of girlie push-ups (for the first time). My time was 8:39. Then I jogged home.
And the rest of the WOD came after work. Tim finished painting the ceiling while I got out my little brush and did all of the detail trim work - around the windows and door, and baseboards, and outlets. That overhead work tired out my already tired arms.
I'm not looking forward to Fight Gone Bad tomorrow : (
WOW, Cis, 8:39 is a great time, especially since, #1, you were sick and #2, you were doing standard pushups! I am having a heck of a time doing any number of standard pushups - my back hurts and my abs aren't helping enough. When I did JT last Friday, my time was 11:05 doing girlie pushups!
