Hello one and all! This is the beginning of, what I hope will be, documentation of a long and arduous preparation for one race, then many more to come. (This is my first blogging attempt, so bear with me.) The race for which I'm training may or may not be the same for the rest of you, but hopefully, we can at least follow each other's training schedule, and consequently hold each other accountable to it. (MacLeod #6's idea.) So, without ado, I'll kick things off with my workout today:
30 shoulder-width pushups
30 4-count flutter kicks
20 crunches
30 wide-arm pushups
30 4-count flutter kicks
20 crunches
30 body-weight squats
20 diamond pushups
1 1/2 min plank
30 body-weight squats
5 min standing twists with 6lbs
30 6lb squats.
Not much, I know, but again, this is the beginning. The gauntlet is thrown.
MacLeod #5, well done. This leaves me scrambling to find the gauntlet....

I don't have much to show for last week, but here it is regardless. I'm still sorely out of shape and am just trying to get in some base mileage and core strength.
