Happy Friday! I know I'm happy it's Friday. Short weekend here then I leave for PA on Sunday. Due to the length of the trip and the fact that I'll be returning to my in-laws, grilling, and doing Christmas stuff, I'm probably just going to do conditioning next week. Unless there is a local gym near the hotel...
Anyway, somehow woke up early this morning and am standing out here in the 35 degree garage. May hit some Bench this morning before work. Planning to do DLs tonight. Hope you have a great day.

3.65 mile run TT=33'04"
Felt good. Had to stop a couple of times because of dumba$$ drivers. Worst pace was 9' and change best pace 7'50".
Enjoy DL's...

I usually wear my wrist watch and just stop the timer when I have to wait on traffic. That and try to plan a trip with mostly right turns to avoid it altogether.

Deadlift 5x235, 3x255 7x275, 7x295, 7x315 PR
Assistance: 4 Rounds: 8 Deadlifts, 210 lbs 30 Second Plank Hold
Time: 21:50
Chin-ups One Set, Max Reps: 18
Bench 5x135, 5x155 7x165, 7x175, 7x185
Assistance: 4 Rounds: 8 Bench Press, 135 8 Chin-ups
Then: 20 Good Mornings, 125 lbs
Time: 24:00
Comments: Dead tired for this, but getting it in. DL: Didn't feel worth a crap until the 295 set. Happy with that PR at 315 and honestly could've gotten more reps. Chin-ups: Arms are smoked from the last few days. Bench: Felt really weak for this. I'm sure doing it after Deadlifts doesn't help. Oh well. Got it in. Looks like nothing but conditioning for a week now. Have a good night.

If so, dang!

I usually wear my wrist watch and just stop the timer when I have to wait on traffic. That and try to plan a trip with mostly right turns to avoid it altogether. Well, I actually used my Nike+ running app and my watch. The times were close. I wasn't going for distance but for time. Minimum of 30'. I know I can go faster but to ease myself into running every day I am following this regimen: Run 4 minutes, walk 1 minute x6 Next week, the ratio will be 5:1 x5 and so on... I used to run marathons so I'm hoping to ramp up quickly. I just have to get used to running with this extra muscle. In my peak marathon condition I was 175# now I'm 200#. That's big difference.

Thanks man. Yeah, did it all in 45 minutes. Glad I was able to get it in.
Sounds like we do similar stuff as far as running goes. I use Map My Run app to track the distance and my stop watch (wrist watch) to keep track of the actual time (stopping when I have to wait on traffic, etc.). At the end, I go in and edit the time on my app to get my overall pace.
Glad you're getting back into running. I can't run every day because of my knees. That's another motivating factor for me to join a gym, so I can sub in different types of cardio that are less stressful on the joints. And yeah, running with all of this extra weight ain't no picnic!
