Friday
woke up a bit sore and a bit tired so i took the day off. thought about a pm run but the t-storms put an end to that!
Saturday
up early. cup of coffee and out the door for a local run. hams sore but loosened up nicely. 2 miles in the the quads are locking up. what? freaking brutal pain. ending up walking the couple miles home. argh. not sure whats up with that. stretched them out good when i got home and a little better but still tender. maybe too much deadlift thursday? after affects of weeks of riding running?
weird.
will be in full on Darkhorse 40 promoting chaos for the rest of today and then during the event tomorrow. going to be crazy!!
playing in a golf outing monday so most likel a day off from training. hoping the legs come back to life!!
peace!

Weekend wrap 7-2/3/4
Happy 4th of July!
Saturday.
Stewart DH40 loop with some of the jersey boys.
30 miles. legs went to poo at about 26. took the road back after that point. good solid ride. 3+ hours on the ss in the woods. humid. was totally spent at the end. shot. empty.
need to think more about fueling on the bike....
Sunday
epic rains.
went out with the intention of getting a clean gps file of the course but bailed due to the shit conditions. ended up with about 17 miles of random stewart goodness.
good times, soggy but good...
Monday
spent about 4 or 5 hours clearing trails with a weed-whacker. super humid. argh.
sweated like a bear.
brutal.
Tuesday.
back to work. no gym this am. slept in instead and will get out on the roadie after work for a little spin.
peace

Darkhorse 40 course recon
23-25 miles by the time we got done.
got a gps of the course loop but need to add a section so will go back out and get a solid file later in the week maybe.
felt pretty good. casual pace for the most part. legs felt solid after the long run on Saturday.

Weekend wrap up
weekend wrap up here.
Saturday
was thinking of doing a roadride in the am but got up to sprinkling showers. argh. wasn't feeling it.
had breakfast with the kiddies and then went out for a run in the uber humid yuck. not like florida but a little sticky.
ran a road/trail loop by the house. good amount of hills to keep you honest.
felt good.
4 miles according to map my run. didn't feel that far at all.
Sunday
up early and out to Stewart. had work to do on the 40 race course.
met George and we finalized the course for August. so that's cool. lot of work to be done!
course is awesome! really really awesome. one of the best we have had i think. good flow. lots of singletrack. very happy with it.
24 miles on the mtb. liking the bigger gear on the ss. have to take it someplace with some real climbing to access.

Saturday
up early and out the door for a mountain bike ride with some of the boys from MTBNJ
perfect morning for it. cool. but got hot later.
23 miles of some of stewarts finest singletrack. got turned around once where the moto's have made a maze of some of the trails. hit most of the good stuff.
legs were good. started to get a little buggered by the end. considering how shot my hams were during the week they held up good.
good group and good pace. nice to be out spinning.

waking up with Angie!
yikes!
so slept better last night by a little. way tired in the am when alarm went off. almost bagged it but its new years eve! gotta suck it up and get a workout in!
got dressed and check the blackberry for the mainsite wod, ANGIE!
oh boy! we are in for fun this am......
warm up run
1/4 jog
mile run at 8:35 pace
1/4 jog cool down
angie
100 pull-ups
100 push-ups
100 sit-ups
100 squats
pull-ups
first 30 or so went well then had to break them into smaller blocks. last few sets were not the greatest...
took a long time to get thru the 100
push-ups
these hurt but didn't take very long
sit-ups
not so bad but really getting drained by the end
squats
had to take a couple minutes to collect myself for the squats
really light headed and shot
broke them into sets of 20
25:00/26:00 mins
didnt have the stopwatch so had to go by the gym wall clock
after the sit-ups i knew it was going to be a crappy time. felt good just to get thru the squats without passing out. very difficult this am but glad i got it done!
was certainly feeling the effects of a couple poor nights sleep and the added stress from personal crap. moving in the right direction with that stuff so hopefully will be able to stay positive.
looking to set a few goals for the new year. no resolutions just some goals.
go as paleo as possible. may commit to the 30 day challenge for january. thinking hard on that one.
1/2 marathon. think i am going to run the hook mountain half marathon in april. its local, its cheap and its a great training motivator for the spring. plus can run it with a friend who has done it before. sister may be in as well which would be sweet. about 98% that this is a go.
do a 100 mile mountain bike race. not sure which one, when or where. but i bagged shenandoah last year and that was a bummer. i was no way fit enough and it was the right call but still disappointed. maybe hit shen this year. wilderness is out as it conflicts with the darkhorse 40. we'll see.
doubt i will do any shorter mountain bike races this year. maybe go spectate. not into that scene right now.
i'm sure i will come up with more
thats all for now.
happy new year. keep it safe out there tonight!!
