On the track and on the Bike

yesterday was a great day for the 1st annual Spring-ford all  comers meet!!  It was a fantastic turnout and it was a lot of fun to see everyone again.  Hit the track with some other alum for a 4x800.  We were destined to loose but it was fun to run it anyway!  I lead off and came in in the low 2:50s.  I was excited that it was faster than the one I ran in the pentathlon indoors this year.  Overall, it was a great time!

Today I decided to stay inside and ride the bike rather than go outside and celebrate national running day because it was ridiculously hot again and i did not get my act together early enough to beat the heat.  Today was a recovery day cause I was really sore from yesterday!  Rode for an hour and half, nothing special, just moving.  Then I did a little lifting.  3 sets of 10 incline sit ups with a 35 lbs weight.  3 sets of 10 split jumps with a 25 lbs weight.  3 sets of 8 hand stand push ups.  3 sets of 10 leg lifts off the bench.  3 sets of 10 step ups on each leg with a 35 lbs weight, and 3 sets of 10 rows with a 65 lbs bar.  All in all it was just over 2 hours of work.  Felt really good.  Looking forward to making more improvements this summer.
