[MaryStella]

LnG & Tasha - thanks so much for your positivity! Today was a tough day for me. I was tired and sore this morning so my workout suffered

 

3.5.9

6am - shoulder stability circuit - 3 X 15

v raises, rear delt raises, scapular pushups, isometric holds

run 3 miles - 24:40. Felt my sore legs every step of the way.

 

I couldn't make it to kickboxing or to the gym tonight. I needed to take my dad to the hospital, he needs a pacemaker which he should get tomorrow. So I am getting some unplanned rest in which probably isn't a bad thing since i can't remember the last time I took a rest day. It's been a stressful day and i think tomorrow will be too. On a happier note I can finally use my laptop again after a month or so of not having it. I will probably start posting back some of the workouts I did that I never logged.

[MaryStella]

3.6.9

 

No AM workout. Spent almost the entire day in the hospital with my father. He had pacemaker surgery. It was a stressful day and I was drained so my only workout was a road run near my place that my father and I used to run when I first started running with him a long time ago. This was a great moving meditation that I needed to do after spending a day in the hospital. It is a very depressing place. I hate seeing the horrible "food" they serve the patients there as well as all of the drugs etc. My dad is one of my heroes. He starting me running at a young age. I used to wait for him to come home from work so we could go out on our runs together. Dad ran a lot of road races from 5 miles to half marathons and marathons. Never saw him quit and that rubbed off on me. I learned how to push myself hard and thank him so much for that. Its served me well in life. He also used to box although that was before I was born. Since this course was one I used to run with him I decided to dedicate this run to him in my own mind and it felt good. Maybe not a great workout for the body today but an excellent one for the mind and soul.

4 miles - Hilly Course Time 34.31

[MaryStella]

3.7.9 - No AM workout. Dad was still in the hospital but is home tonight! It was another long day but things should get easier now and hopefully I can get back to my regular workout routine. Didn't have time to get to the gym before they closed so I did another outdoor run to enjoy the warm weather the NE has been having this weekend. I don't really care for winter so this was treat. 4 miles - Hilly Course - 33.25

[MaryStella]

Decided to post back some my workouts when I wasn't keeping my log updated now that I have my laptop back!

Round 1 weight = 95

Round 2 weight = 105

Round 3 weight = 115 - must have bent forward a bit on my way up on the last rep and I nearly dumped myself and the bar. It happened so fast I never let go of the bar. luckily my lifting partner was in a great position to catch both me and the bar. A more tradional grip with the weight on my back would have prevented this

Round 4 & 5 weight = 95 - Decided to drop back a bit after i scared myself. Just didn't have the confidence for heavier weight.
