Training Log Archive: Sandy

With Sandy and Mac. Karl, John, Alison, Clem, Tom, Hugh and Jim did it on their own. Got a ride to the start from Karl so didn't have to do that part. Finally got most of the letters to look pretty decent.

The best part was the eating afterwards!

There was 6-9" of snow in the woods which made for slow going in places but fun downhills. I was overdressed by one layer - should have stuck with worked on Wednesday instead of putting the extra shirt on.

C • 5/2 1

A bunch of different things - planks, squats, some arms, situps. Have a pain in my shoulder now so need to back off on push-ups and some of the hand weight exercises.

Nothing I'm doing is that strenuous but I feel like I'm breaking down...

C • a rest day 6

Futzing around in the woods. Great way to start the new year.

Another slam dunk on the layers. Ditched hat, gloves and neck gaiter after about half an hour, and then never got cold and never got sweaty. So feeling pretty happy about that. I imagine if I were running though it would be a different story.

C • NICE! 1

Bummed. Had got the weight down to 123.0 on Saturday, but it crept back up again. I guess that's what taking a few days off does since I can't seem to eat less when I do that.

Easy hike on the meadow loop.

I've got something weird going on in my right hip/thigh. It doesn't really hurt very much and it feels more like a bruise than anything else but it's been bothering me for a while now. Took a few days off to see if that made a difference and loaded up on ibuprofen. Didn't really seem to help. So decided I needed to start hiking again.

The knot in my calf seems to have gone away, though. So that's good.
