Wearing myself out

Let's see, what have I been up to?

Monday Sue and I did yoga.
Tuesday I did upper-body strength training. The Green Tara always has things to teach you: this time out there was weakness in my shoulders, which manifested itself during bench press more than anything else. You wouldn't think your shoulder would enter into it during bench press, but if you think about how the muscles work, the biomechanics of it, it makes sense.
Last night I went to the track and did some intervals. I would run 4 laps at 10K pace, and then the fifth lap at max speed. I did five sets like that, and my max speed was not very speedy at the end. Then I went home and did some abs with Ilg.
That was enough for me: a couple hours later I totally crashed.

This weekend I am going to try the course for the half-marathon. Should be exciting.
