Note
Worked the bike races this morning, then caught a 5 PM flight to Denver. A little delayed due to no gate, but otherwise went well. Though baggage claim was more people than usual due to all of the checking of the usual carry-on bags...
Did do 39 pushups today at the awards ceremony to beat the rest of the women by 10+.

Biking (C&O Canal/Carderock) 1:24:00 [1] 12.0 mi (7:00 / mi)
shoes: Bike shoes
A ride with Sarah who was trying out her "new to her" bike while her boyfriend Matt ran. Very nice morning - cool and low humidity.
Followed up with several hours of yard work - separating the irises - anyone want like 150 irises?! I put 20 back into the ground...the rest are up for grabs.

Running warm up/down 10:00 [1] 1.0 mi (10:00 / mi)
slept:7.0 weight:181lbs shoes: Saucony 7 - Banana 2
Got to BC before everyone else, and decided to run on the artifical field, instead of the sidewalk, so I could pamper my knees after yesterday's run. Instead of running around, I ran back and forth like I was mowing the lawn. Ida joined me partway through.
Misc 55:00 [3]
shoes: Saucony 7 - Banana 2
It was all about arms today - sets of Mountain Climbers (15, 25, 30, 30), pushups (1 minute, 2 min, 1 min, to failure - I planked for the 3rd & 4th set), and Body Shapers with include 2 pushups for each one (15, 10, 10, 10).
Then lots of band stuff (triceps, shoulder stuff, etc.) with a little running in between.
Only seven people here today, so it was a nice intimate session.

Note
Have spent the day sucking in dust from the stripping of the gym floor outside my office. Hopefully, I will be able to blow if out tomorrow during a bike ride with Sarah. Right now, I have a headache from it.

Running (W&OD Bike Trail) 57:57 [3] 6.0 mi (9:40 / mi)
slept:6.0 weight:181lbs shoes: Saucony - Big Blue 1
Boot Camp run. Was concerned whether I could do the distance after not running this much in a while. Had hoped to stop at the lights for a break, but we got them all green today, so ran it all. Yeah!! With Ida and Laura. Goal was 10 minute per mile pace going out and picking up the pace coming back. Plan executed perfectly. Felt good throughout, and breathing was in control the entire time as well.
Half mile splits:
508 502 458 501 459 501
448 454 443 439 432 411

Misc 1:00:00 [3]
slept:6.0 weight:181lbs shoes: Saucony 7 - Banana 2
Had a quiet word with Bobby and Theresa before class about class starting late, warming up too long, and ending late. Bobby tried the argument that only two people were there today at 6 AM, and I pointed out that the class should start on time for the people who were there on time, not late to accomodate the late comers. Nice reasonable discussion followed by a decent session with lots of jumping rope, Body Shapers, two 1/2 mile runs, and, of course, jumping jacks.
Note
Waiting for the AC company to come and replace our central air system.
My first event at the 1000 Day will be the Night-O on August 14.

Misc 1:00:00 [2] 2.0 mi (30:00 / mi)
slept:6.0 weight:183lbs shoes: Saucony 7 - Banana 1
Got there a little early and did a mile (ran .4, walked .2, ran .4). Then we stretched for 10-12 minutes - way too much time. Bobby wasn't wearing a watch, so I don't think he realises how long it was. I think I will mention it to him in the morning.
Off for a 1 mile Ranger Run after the stretching. Followed by arm work - shoulder presses, lateral raises, arm circles - stuff like that. Finished with Super Woman and elbows & toes.
Very warm at around 80 F, and the gnats were out in full force.

Wanted to snuggle in this morning and just listen to the storm going on outside, but I got up after Roger called up to see if I was moving or not. I wasn't, but I was... :)
Feeling much better - chest is about 95% clear now.
Three laps (.6 mile) warmup. Lots of stretching since Bobby was leading today.
Squats, sprints, bicep stuff, lunges.
Very happy to be back at Boot Camp. It felt very good.
