What's your workout today?

9/1: Rest day. First taste of alcohol in a month (interestingly, I'm not the "cheap date" I thought I'd be).

9/2: 2:20 on the singlespeed, with a big salad, water & then some beers in the middle (I love the weekly post-trail social dinner!) It seems my ability to process alcohol has diminished more than I expected. At least Breckenridge Oatmeal Stout still makes me happy.

Also discovered that I've bent my chainring.....either a stray log-impact or I'm getting too darn strong (hopefully the latter).

Arms, Back and Abs at the gym.

Oly lifting and 30 minutes on the Stairmaster again. I was planning on a nice long run tomorrow, but there's another typhoon inbound. Aargh!

P90X Week Three, Plyometrics. Still can't make it through the whole thing, but getting better.

Gotta get motivated to run 4 miles today. It's been a very rough week, motivation's been hard.

Rest Day.

Today I learned how to play racquetball. Holy crap, what a workout!

9/3: Rest day as a buddy's weekend-homecoming ride is going to push me to 16-17 hours on the bike. Chainring was bent twice, 180 degrees apart, inline with my cranks...new ring mounted (aluminum rather than stainless steel, which probably means it'll just snap instead of bending...)

I need to start another round of P90x. I went through the program once a little while back. I slacked off a bit for a while but need to get back into it. I may have to look into getting some power blocks as I don't have easy access to dumbells like I once did.

I missed the brief window of opportunity to run before a thunderstorm picked up. Bodyweight exercises at home instead.

5 mile run yesterday + 9 hours riding my new motorcycle (motorcycle safety course)

Today was an upper body circuit

Run - 3.5 miles
1 Arm Kettelebell Swing - 500 reps
Crunches - 55 reps

Three mile run today along the shore.

9/4: 62 miles of exploring gravel roads on the cyclocross bike. Pavement turned into gravel, turned into dirt, turned into tracks through tall grass. Found some masochist-worth punchy little hills (15% or so, short, and one-after-another)

Walk - 5 min
Run - 0.5 mi/100 1AS(16Kg) x 10

Total Time - 1hr 30m
Total run time - 1hr (5 miles)
Total swing time - 30 min
Total calories - 1156(30% fat)
Avg HR - 161

More forced rest days!
