It was good getting back to business after almost a week off. I only slept for about 5 hours (as usual) but woke up rested and ready to go. I felt pretty rickity for the first couple of miles but on the third mile I settled into a nice groove. I tried to push a bit for mile five and then hauled it back in for the last mile and a bit. (I say "hauled it back in" like it was intentional as opposed to the fact that I felt like my lungs were going to explode and I thought I would puke.) Then I got back home and did shit: 3 sets of 10 calf raises for each leg, 20 burpees (my new favourite exercise next to running) 4 sets of 25 crunches, and some yogaish stretching. Feeling good and ready to get at it.


Awesome 6 this morning Steve.

You need to add some kettlebell work in with those burpees. Swings and burpeess make for a nice pull-push combo -- especially if you add a push up to the burpee.

I thought a pushup was a standard part of the burpee...I have so little knowledge of this kind of thing it is embarrassing. Will consider the kettle ball.

Nice run and shit! I never did yogaish-y moves. Is that wishy washy yoga???
12 months ago • Like • 1 person
I think yoga is supposed to have some sort of routine flow and you are supposed to concentrate on your breathing and center yourself. I don't do that. I pick the moves that I like and that I think will stretch out what I want stretched out and I just do those.

I knew you would bang in a rockin' run this week Steve! Doing burpees too (after seeing Nora's post! :-/)

I can't wrap my head around the idea of doing burpees voluntarily. Just another confirmation of your badassery. Nice sixer!
