Arms and abs tonight. Arms are so hard for me. My shoulders are so weak. I really need to try to strengthen them. Good workout tonight. Didn't do legs as I am running early in the morning.

I'm finding out that a stronger upper body will help a lot to give you energy for long runs. I've started focusing a bit more on that area and it seems to be helping. Plus I feel better. Of course, core muscle strength is needed for any physical activity. That's the one area you can exercise every day.

I too am hoping it pays off, I know how much I rely on my arm swing to pull me through when I am pushing through fatigue!

Good run. Easing back in with low miles and easy paces, just to build a base for a while and loving it! Running is always better with a friend too.

Good work, Chris. You should get out and run the trails on the island. That will help get you in shape for the hills during Ragnar.

Dave-I definitely plan to hit the Island soon (probably will give it a month or so to warm up a bit) and I also plan to hit Bonneville Shoreline, I discovered this fall and it is a great training trail for Ragnar :) Thanks!
It was so good to see you and your family on Sunday; we miss you.

Wow, Jillian kicks my but..I am weak, but if I keep it up, maybe she will make me strong ;) Thanks Michelle for letting me invade you and work out at your house!

I was pretty weak when I started Jillian DVDs. I'm so much stronger now (still can hardly do 3 real push-ups though) and have more muscle than ever (even if I'll never have a visible 6-pack).

I can't do one real push-up...maybe after a while of letting Jillian beat me up I will be able to a whole one :) Thanks for the encouragement!
