Better than yesterday, but still a bit of a struggle. Plus, Sallie was having a little difficulty keeping up with me. :) I could definitely tell the summertime heat was taking a toll. Really wish I... read more

blah Nbrhd run to train bridge 3.22 mi 00:33 10:12 pace
Definitely not my best run ever. :-( I'd intended on running to the Franklin Bridge, but I guess I just wasn't really feeling this run. My tummy was hating on me, and my head was starting to pound.... read more

RUN
good Lake-Franklin Bridge Loop 4.89 mi 00:48 09:51 pace
This was Sallie's longest run (time and distance) ever! She was a real trooper on the run; she did a great job. We did have to slow down a bit the last mile or so. I think she was pretty tired. Of ... read more

great 5.65 mi 00:55 09:48 pace
Couldn't have asked for a better evening for a run! I've been a complete bum as far as exercise is concerned for the past couple weeks, but it was too beautiful tonight to let another day go by wit... read more

great Hills 5.83 mi 00:53 09:08 pace
Here is my attempt at running some hills outside. I looked at the elevation map of some of my previous runs and tried to come up with a plan based on that. When I actually got to the river, what it... read more

blah Ft Snelling / Minnehaha 11.97 mi 02:09 10:45 pace
This was not a good run. At all. Perhaps it was the fact that I hadn't run since doing speed work on Tues. Maybe it was all the upper body and ab work I did last night. Or was it the music I was l... read more

Amazing Arms 'n Abs April Cat...
I've been a total slacker this week - skipping all workouts W-F. Oops! Today, after my short bike ride, I played a little catch-up. I'll definitely (I hope!) be feeling this tomorrow.

good VERY leisurely ride 6.3 mi 00:39 9.6mph pace
Rode up to Menards to check prices for a project and then just a little jaunt through St Paul. Mostly just enjoyed the evening and conversation with Jeff.

RUN
good Treadmill Speedwork 5 mi 00:52 10:29 pace
My body was not at all feeling this workout, and it took me awhile to get into it, but I forced my way through it. Here's the lowdown:
0.0-0.25 - 4.0mph @ 5% incline (walking)
0.25-0.5 - 4.5mph @ ... read more-

great LSD to Eagan 14 mi 02:23 10:11 pace
Beautiful day for a run! There were definitely times when the wind was a bit harsh, but the sun was shining and, honestly, the wind kinda felt good - except when I thought I might lose my bunny ear... read more

good Around Nokomis 14.48 mi 01:13 11.9mph pace
Pretty good ride today - except I always get a little turned around when trying to bike around Nokomis. I always forget when to turn in order to get to the trail that goes around the lake. Today, I... read more

Thankfully, no one yelled at me or even commented (at least within my earshot) that I was on the wrong path.

Banana Rolls, holding each pose for 5-10 sec, rolling for a total of 2minutes. Repeat.
These were weird, but I think I'll definitely be feeling them tomorrow.

Nice Job:
At first I thought you were doing Ab Ripper X from P90X until I read the title. Those banana rolls are evil and awkward, but definitely helps to improved the core. Good job!

Thanks! Hopefully by the end of April, I'll be able to do them a little less awkwardly. :)
