Did my fitness test last night. I cut 1min15secs off my 1km time trial. Pretty impressed with that.

Gotta do exercise tonight and I don't wanna.

*lazy*

Today was my first 5K run since late September, which took me 32:12, only 22secs faster than my slowest 5K (which was also my first). And >6mins slower than my fastest 5K back in August. So there is plenty of room for improvement but it's good to know I can still do it after all the inactivity of winter. It was hard though.

3.5 mile run. we were done in 38 minutes but i'm just happy to have survived these things at all. pretty sure my 10k will take me 1.5 hours.

Today was 5K in 30:50 so I've shaved off 1:22 from yesterday's time and got it *just* under 10 min/mile.

Tonight will involve beer, and I'm off the running until Sunday.

I finally bought a yoga mat so maybe I might also actually use the DVD that is presently gathering dust.

i had the bright idea dont' ask me why, to do this ridiculousness. and when i hated it after rep 2 he made me finish all 5 sets:

Rear Delt Inverted Row

uh but now that i see this again, he made me do it much lower than that, which was harder. next time i'm doing it like the picture.

then we alternated all of this:

1. the dreaded row machine
2. Lateral Step-up but with 10 lb dumbbells each hand
3. Dumbbell Low Swing but with a 15 lb kettlebell instead of the dumbbell.
