The morning was 2 x 30-min sessions on the treadmill. In the afternoon I did a 15-min warm-up on the treadmill, followed by:

Where there is a single number that confirms that I did the number of reps called for. Where there are two numbers the first is the amount of weight I used, followed by reps.

Followed with another 15 mins on the treadmill. I actually goofed a little today. Usually I take the sheet and put what weights I plan to use. For whatever reason I didn’t do the step-up line, so by mistake I used Monday’s weights. Usually what I do is start with the highest weight I managed on the last workout, and by the last set increase it. And I was so tired today that I just didn’t notice.

I was just dragging myself around today. Although I was up at a decent time, I didn’t have breakfast until 10am. I forgot my morning snack (adjusted lunch to compensate), and really had to force myself on the treadmill. The afternoon wasn’t much better. I really did consider stopping somewhere around the push-ups, but kept going. And laying on the mat after the last set I tried to convince myself that I really didn’t need to do the last 15 mins on the treadmill. I did finish it, but today’s sets just wore me out. I don’t think it was the weights chosen, just not a good day.

Tomorrow is going to be another rainy day, but it looks like by Sunday we’ll see some sun. After waiting for Spring, my allergies are now bothering me a little. Careful what you wish for, right? By the end of next week though I should be able to get into the pool most days. It helps keep my sinuses in check. Also tomorrow is a quick road trip down to Vineland (in Niagara area) to buy more frozen sour and sweet cherries. We’re finished the two pails we got back in February. Usually we can them, but somewhere along the way we finished them up this winter. Of course we didn’t can any last year so that’s probably why.

So, I’m going to add my daily totals, and maybe try and make an early night of it.
