It's Friday!

So to accompany the crazy mood swing mother nature had this week, today was in the high 60s. My body cannot hang with 92 then 88 then 68. It cannot hang.

I wasn't expecting quite such a drop in the temperature today. I was thinking mid 70s and packed for the run accordingly. Well I was not ready to run in the dark in shorts and a tank while it was 60 degrees outside. That combination screamed of a cold that I do not want anything to do with. So I skipped it.

Today, instead, was an NROL day. I upped the weights all around today.

Squats: 60#
Row: 120#
Pushups: With a 10# weight on my back
Step ups: 30#

For the first two rounds of Workout A, I did straight pushups. Since you go down in reps over the weeks, I knew I needed to find a way to make the pushups more challenging. I strongly considered elevated pushups, but decided at the last minute to put a weight on my back instead. It was a little awkward, but I definitely felt the difference. I don't think I'll be going up in weight very quickly for this style, but it was nice to know I could do this.

I'd like to get a run in tomorrow, but I don't know that I will be able to. B and I are still undecided as to when we are leaving for San Diego. We also have a couple of activities planned around here tomorrow, so it may be hard to squeeze in, but I'd like to go for at least a short run.

Happy weekend!
