Training in Montana

Hit the gym after work and planned on doing the stair stepper the whole time, but after 5 minutes I decided I'd do some TM running. Ran 3 miles at 2% incline, and progressive from 6.5 mph for a couple miles to 7.2 and up and up. Last .3 miles I was at a 6:58 per mile pace. A bit too fast for my feet and lower legs right now, but I was in a hurry. It felt pretty good.

Right now I'm focused mainly on exercising, in whatever way. Spinning, Boot Camp, Insanity, running, whatever. Give me an hour of sweat and I'm tired at night and I can fall asleep easily. That's my goal right now: to be tired enough at the end of the day that I can fall asleep by 10:30. That gives me 7 hours of sleep and keeps me going.

60 minutes of spin class with Psycho Lindsay. Loved it! I wasn't feeling it for the first half of class, legs felt a bit dead, I was yawning while sweating like a horse, and then 30 minutes in I finally woke up. Great push to the end, felt great the rest of the day. Dog tired at night and got some good sleep. Success.

Boot Camp. Good session, lots of upper body. Felt really low for most of this, should've eaten a bit more to get some sugar before class. I made it through and felt good.

No workout Thursday or Friday, but Saturday I went to the gym with my wife for the 8 am spinning class with Lindsay the crazy woman. It was awesome. I felt much better than I had on Tuesday and I powered through, keeping up with Lindsay and burning some good calories. Total mileage was 24.5 miles. Not bad for a 1 hour class.
