I climbed four days in a row over the weekend. Went to the climbing gym Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday. Though Friday and Saturday’s sessions were lighter sessions, my arms, hands, and fingers are definitely feeling it today. Not too sore, just tired. But in a good way.
Yesterday I also went running outside on the trail for the first time in awhile (a week or so) and it was hard. I went in the morning to avoid the brutal heat, though it was still pretty hot at 8AM. I went 6+ miles at a slow pace, and I’m just glad I…
I’ve done two-a-days before. Probably not like how real athletes do two-a-days, but more along the lines of going to the gym in the morning or lunch and for a mix of cardio and core, and then doing something else later (like running or ultimate or climbing), or vice versa. This would happen maybe once or twice a month… some months.
So yesterday was my first “real” two-a-day. During lunch I went to the gym and did 30 minutes of semi-light cardio on the arc trainer and my usual core workout (100 slow sit-ups on the exercise ball + back and…
I just realized today is the first day of June. Really? June already? It’s amazing how time can fly by so fast. I feel like I barely had a chance to get accustomed to May.
Not a whole lot going on right now. I’m still slowly getting back into the swing of exercise-things. I’ve kept up climbing (got myself a month membership to the North gym), kind-of-sort-of started running again (once a week? twice a week?), and kind-of-sort-of started playing more ultimate again. This past weekend I played in TBUF (beach ultimate) in Galveston, which was fun despite our defending champions…
Today is one of the sorest days my body has had in a very a long time. It hurts to laugh, I’m having trouble raising my arms above my head, and my legs feel like jello. As much as the pain is, though, I have to say… I miss feeling sore! For once I feel like I’m making progress, and it’s been awhile!
It’s been a frustrating battle the past few months, trying to get back into the exercise swing of things. As I summarized in this post, I’ve been going through a cycle of sickness and injury. It actually continued…
Hey everyone. I know it’s been awhile, that it’s funny that my last “real” post was over a year ago stating that I would blog more. Well, guess I was wrong! Sorry about that… although it’s not like you missed all that much, anyway. :)
So I just finished re-doing my entire site. I didn’t do a redesign, so if you didn’t notice much of a difference, that is why. Basically, the last version was entirely XSLT-driven (and I really mean entirely), with just a main page and the gallery. It was fun to code at the time, but I was…
So I know as of late my blogging has been… well, pathetic. I was doing well for awhile, but then it stopped. Maybe I was too busy. Maybe I was too lazy. Maybe I was too lame. In any case, I’m hoping to go back to my blogging ways. It’s not like you missed much, though. Really, my life has been pretty much the same as before, i.e. The Big Four: Music, Running, Ultimate, and Sports.
So music wise… per the usual, I’ve been to shows. Back in December I saw Iron and Wine (sold out awesomeness) and went to 101X’s…
