Hellz ya!  BooYA! 

I started following the official program in the Spring, but promptly forgot about it two weeks in.  So, I was sitting around last night and found my original program, and thought “Hmmmm.  I have been lifting heavier weights with higher reps over the last couple of months. HMMMMM….”.

The first 50 I did military style, in blocks of 10-20 with 30-45 second breaks between.  The next 50 I did “girlie” style (YES, it still counts!) in blocks of 10-15.

The first 80 were no problem/verging on starting to get hard.  The last 20 were hard, the last 10 were a struggle and the last 5 were pure torture.  I’m pretty sure I forgot to breathe during that last set of 20 and when I was done, I felt like puking.

My arms felt a little bit sore this morning but they’re fine now, although I might end up with some DOMS tomorrow.

So, don’t mess with me cuz I can kick your ass, yo!

Baby steps

I ran tonight. 2.25 miles @ 10:36. I wanted to keep it short and sweet so as to not aggravate any healing that has taken place in the 11 days since I last ran. It went okay, but then the first two miles of my runs were always pretty okay. It's around 3.5 that things start to fall apart. Afterward, I iced and stretched and took ibuprofen. I have no idea how in the heck I'm going to complete a HM in 18 days.
