Round-Up

TUESDAY, 25th
The donut run was fun! Here's my results (it's quite obvious on the timing graph where I ate my donut)

WEDNESDAY, 26th
We didn't do a thing. We were super tired and laziness set in as well.

THURSDAY, 27th
We couldn't wake up in the AM but made plans to go in the PM. I did my lifting program and upped some of my weights and reps (certainly not on all exercises, but some) and it felt good to get lifting again as it had been since (ahem) last Thursday. Chad lifted chest and bis. Oh, we also did some laps in between our sets to kick it up a notch. 

FRIDAY, 28th
We got up *yay!* and we went to Spin. Man, the legs were feeeeeeling it. I lefted bis and tris and sprinkled in some abs and Chad did tris and hit up the steam room. The ladies steam room, unfortunately, was out of order. Bollocks. At least we got our sweat on the last day of the month.

T to the G to the I to the F!!!!

Da Week

Monday 2/17 we went for a Spin.

Went for a run on Tuesday 2/18 with Leigh on the Salem Greenway and it felt great! The first sign of a warm up and some much-needed fresh air.

Chad ran downtown - said about 1.5 miles - with a numb mouth from getting a cavity fixed. I assume he was like Kraemer on the Mel Torme episode as he said he bit my

Took a break on Wednesday. Could have done something but we didn't.

Hit up the RAC and did my lifting program on Thursday 2/20. Upped some of my weights. Chad lifted with Matthew and Michael.

Went for a run with some folks on the Hanging Rock Greenway before enjoying some time at Parkway and then some yummy food at All Sports. Chad did about 1.5 miles again - he was late to arrive due to work.

That about sums up the week.

Sunday, Yo.

We did not do anything on Saturday, so we figured it was a good idea to get going today. I went through the workout Leonard gave me last week. I will be doing this full body lift program twice a week (I failed to do so last week) and increasing the weights with time.

Cold Spin

Went to spinning in the cold before all of the crazy snow started. Definitely got our sweat on! Instructor also brought sweet treats (counterproductive, right?!) but of course we took them.

I finally wore my Garmin and HRM and these were my results (I didn't stop it until I was done with the cool down and stretches): http://connect.garmin.com/activity/444173932

Cheers.
