running up to Christmas
We’re at my parents’ now, so naturally I’m taking advantage of the dusty treadmill in their basement to get some vacation runs in (and not run outside in the snowy cold). Yesterday I resolved to run as long as one … Continue reading
You might think…
You might think that, since I’m on vacation and all, I might have plenty of time to go out for a run. Sadly, this is not the case. This week has been an exhausting whirlwind of Christmas prep and home … Continue reading
sometimes the right music makes a big difference
Had a good time in the weight room for 5×5-B this morning. Usually I put on metal when I lift but today I had on the new Gary Numan album– yes he’s still around, and it’s really good! My squats … Continue reading
Just a gentle jog
That was the direction that Zombies, Run! gave me when I started up my run this morning and I stuck to it for 30 minutes and called it good. I’m never sure what I ought to do for these workouts … Continue reading

Definitely not doing it right
Back in the weight room this morning for another B session of 5×5: squats, OHP and deadlift. As usual, I neglected to check my weights from last time before I loaded up for squats and overloaded it– jumped from 100lb … Continue reading
Grumpy office whine
What a hot mess today was. I’m writing this at 5:30pm because this is the first chance I’ve gotten to sit and look at my computer today. On-site work social events are the worst because I always wind up having … Continue reading
Argh, DOMS
After Tuesday’s first 5×5 workout I was literally hobbled– my quads were so sore that I had trouble walking for 2 days. Wednesday and Thursday were very slow and I only managed to gently elliptical for 30 minutes each day … Continue reading
