10K TT - 1:01:48. Kind of disappointed in my time. But my legs were SCREAMING at me the whole way, and I still have lots of gross gunk in my lungs from my cold. Had to stop a couple of times during the second half to cough up a lung. Reminds me of when I used to be a smoker. Lovely.

Wanted to do a CF WOD, but I figured with my legs as tired as they were I should just take a rest day. Will roll/stretch before bed. Might hit up the hot tub.

okay wow, life got kind of crazy last week, wasn't online much at all. But it was a deload week for me so I guess the timing worked out.

 

Anyway, back at it today.

 

5/31/11:

 

Ended up working at home so I didn't get weight training in, but I did a running WOD this AM:

2 x 12 min. intervals, 2 min rest between

 

This evening I'm going to make sure I get in at least 30 min. stretching/foam rolling. I haven't stretched or anything in over a week and I feel really tight and sore.

 

 

I'm thinking of getting a pair of push up bars:

They were suggested to me in order to increase my ROM. Has anyone used them before?

How do you use tables? I'm confused. Or do you mean doing incline push ups between two tables? Is it better to do incline push ups rather than use the bars down on the floor?

Meant for a 5K TT this AM, but there was some craziness at work and I had to go in super early, which seems to be the norm these days. Need to reschedule some things to make time for myself moving forward.
