Warm up along the Farmington Canal and back along the road. Blustery out there! Feeling good.

Endurance session. I wish they would post in advance so I could do intervals separately when they're not running. Saying that, this was a tough but very short workout with plenty of thigh burn. We did lots of drills to start which were really fun, my hammies were tired from the deadlifts when we were trying to engage them. Then some excellent stretching, then the workout. In teams of three one person did 10 medicine ball slams, while the other cycled as fast as possible on the airdyne. The other got a rest. These were short and sharp and the airdyne really hurts when you go all out. I was with Cindy and Jesus, and got the most work as I got to rest when Jesus was medicine balling, which was very short, and worked when Cindy was on, which was a little longer. Then some great stretches against the wall which I may incorporate into a daily routine as they felt amazing.

Warm down run. Went up the hill and explored the Quinnipiac campus a bit, but then it got super super windy to the extent that I couldn't breathe and I thought being on top of a big hill was probably not the best idea, and came down again.
