Anyway, here are some pics. The woods are such a different place in the dead of winter with no foliage.
I took a break to eat a Clif Bar and saw something through the trees |
an old decaying bike |
single speed |
salt caked jacket - good workout |
Started taking the Extreme Fitness class at the Y last week. My first two workouts looked like this:
3 x 50 yards in the pool on 1:00
Hop out then do as many pushups as
you can do in a minute (ummm, I don’t need a whole minute to do as many as I
can J)
Rest 1 minute
do as many pushups as you can do in
a minute
Rest 1 minute
Back in the pool
Repeat the sequence except with
jumping squats
Repeat the sequence except with
burpees
Repeat the sequence except with
throwing a medicine ball as high as you can against the wall
You basically in zone 4 sucking
air the entire time. Of course it was humiliating too since I’m the
oldest one there and the weakest J. Oh well, week 2 starts
tonight.

cool photo's....i love the rusty ride ;)))
You know, those boot camp style things are humility makers. I can bust out a nice week of triathlon training, decide I'm hard as nails, hit a boot camp and be crying within 10 minutes.
Great photos. The green in spring summer, is beautiful, but I love seeing all the different seasons and there is something about the starkness of the winter.
Had to laugh at your comment that you don't need a minute to do all the pushups you can do. I can do about 3, so I'd be in the same boat. ;)
Hey Mike! I have the answers to your questions to the female elite athlete! http://www.theboringrunner.com/2012/01/interview-with-trisha-miller-elite.html
That workout is killer. I would be freaking out just knowing I had to swim a 50 in under a minute.
Sometime I want to come down that way and ride those SIUE trails, would be bringing my friend Brenda.
Looks like a challenging workout! The sweat is good proof :)
That bike looks like my bike! lol...kind of a piece of art right now.
Love the workout! KILLER!
cool pics. I like the rusted bike.
I have never seen that bike before! Nice to know there are still new things to see. Not riding over the log pile was a good decision since you were by yourself.
The extreme fitness workout looks freaking AWESOME!! I want to try it out!:)Circuit type work-outs are some of my favorites.
You are rockin' this workout goal thing you've set out for yourself. Like the bike picture:)
