hamstrings

Wednesday I strained my right hamstring. Thursday we walked for around 10 miles so it wasn't a good rest time... I keep straining it every other day so I'm trying to give it a few days rest before working out again so I don't hurt myself.

Birthday week

Monday through Wednesday I did my workouts. Didn't run Tuesday, but did the workout. Yesterday we woke up really early and I was blindfolded until we got to our destination : Islands of Adventure and Universal! Had a blast, walked so much! Lol

Today we slept in since we didn't get much sleep the night before... And I'm about to shower and get ready for a birthday lunch before going to our friends' wedding. so not working out today.

need to make sure I eat...

So yesterday I didn't really eat any "Real" food. I had some cheese-its and a twix ice cream bar.
I paid for that today when I immediately got a cramp in run 1 of my run... Sweat 1-2 went well, and just like on Thursday it really helped me to be stretched and ready for the run. I checked the weather app on my ipad before heading outside, it said cloudy and 61... boy was it wrong. I had to take off my light jacket and put everything that had been in my pockets into my top. Yay for built in pockets? Haha.
I'm a little faint from the heat and lack of actual nutrients... gonna shower and then see what I can scrounge up in the kitchen. Maybe some pasta... Then I need to do that sewing I mentioned yesterday.

Oh, FNM didn't go too well. Only 14 people showed up, I went 2-2 and since there was such a low number we only cut to top 4. Not that I would have made it in to top 8 anyways. Deck must be mad at me or something. Heh... and I forgot to snag a deck for tonight's legacy match before everyone went off to Orlando for the GP so I think I'm skipping tonight and will play modern tomorrow.

productive day and it's not done yet

Set a lot of alarms but didn't expect I'd wake up to any of the early ones, then I woke up before my 830 one and couldn't go back to sleep. So I got up, threw some clothes in the wash, grabbed all the older cards that are sitting around to be sorted and sorted them by set.
Once that was done I figured I had done a decent amount of what I wanted to do today (it was probably the part that took the most amount of time) and allowed myself a nap. Bad plan. I had planned on only sleeping from 11-12 but then I reset my alarm for 1 when I didn't want to wake and was still in bed as 2 ticked closer. I finally told myself that I wasn't allowed to read any emails or messages (hoping for some good news today) until I had gotten up and worked out. So I did so. Sculpt 1-2 went well. Right wrist was hurting a bit from the pushups and chair dips. but it's feeling better now. I then scrubbed the shower, showered, and finished up laundry. All I have left to do is sew some clothes that need repairs, and some reading I wanted to get done before FNM. Hopefully tonight goes better than Wednesday.

whew!

When I ran on Tuesday it was 7pm and 30 something degrees out. Today I did Sweat 1-2 from power 90 and then went for my second run of week 1... I went running at 230pm when it is 60 something degrees out wearing far too similar clothing to that I wore on Tuesday. I was wearing my underarmor shirt and my running jacket (it being the only running layer I have with pockets and I didn't want to wrestle my ipod into it's running sleeve). Halfway through my run I had to tie the jacket around my waist and push my sleeves up. I was so toasty! As a comparison, on Tuesday I had a middle layer of a light running sweater, plus some underarmor pants on under my running pants. I was still chilly Tuesday, today I was sweltering. Time to shower and eat some lunch! Then it's EDH time :)

Workout Plans, attempt 2

So I went for my first run of Couch 2 5k (again) (all bundled up for the cold) and when I got back I saw lots of stuff for P90X2 and really wanted to do it. So starting in the morning I will be doing Power 90 (1/04-3/31) followed by P90X (4/02-6/30) followed by P90X2 (7/02-9/23)
If you are interested in joining me in this endeavor (be it in person or over the internet) please let me know!
