It's Finally Over

If you've been reading, you may have gathered that this week at work was a week from hell. It was busy and stressful and full of negativity. But we prevailed, and it has finally come to an end.

I ate much too much sugar today. Although I will say that a peanut butter cup chopped up and thrown in hot cereal is a fabulous treat. Seriously, try it–it's wonderful.

A run was much, much needed after this day.

This.

Day.

Ugh.

So I did some interval sprinting, jogging for two minutes and sprinting for one minute on and off for about 25 minutes. I cooled down with a walk for about 10 minutes and ended up going just under three miles. It felt good. I think I'm finally beginning to enjoy running again. Especially after this day.

After I got home, I ate a quick dinner and did NROL Stage 1 Workout B. Workout B consists of deadlifts, shoulder press, lateral pulldown, lunges and swiss ball crunches. I did 75#, 30#, 100#, 30# and 15#, respectively. I think that I chose good starting weights overall, although the lunges kicked me in the butt.

I think I'll be taking an active rest day tomorrow, though I may throw in a short run for good measure. We will see how the quads are holding up in the morning.

Until then.
