Day Three Hundred Thirty One - Overkill Day Twenty One
Today was Awesome exercise, but crappy allergies really ruined my day!
This morning we, we did 4 miles! I did another strong powerwalk today, just like yesterday only longer. We were on our usual path and we had Cody and Cooper with us. Lisa was running ahead of me and she suddenly stopped about half way down. When I caught up to her, she told me there were ppl ahead walking. We came up to a woman and two small toddlers walking on the road. The kids looked scared of Cody because he's so big. We had to turn around and lead the dogs back the opposite way. Well I wasn't about to stop my walk, plus I was doing a great speed walk. We turned around and headed up top to the loop in front of my parents place. It's what we call our "track". I've measured the distance in my truck several times, so has my mom. Three full laps equals exactly 1 mile, so it's bigger than a typical school track. Anyway, we get up there and finished off our walk. I powerwalked super hard a full 6 laps without stopping or slowing down. On my last lap, I got some running in there. Lisa did great, she ran 3 full laps nonstop, then ran a bit more during the next 3 laps. So given how much we walked on the 3 mile path, then to do 2 full miles on the track, we averaged out at 4 miles today! That was Awesome!! Oh man I was super tired when we were done.
When we got home, I did my workout on the Bowflex. I did 2 sets of every exercise of 15 reps, some had 20 reps. Then I did 30 reps on the Ab lounge, and finally 20 mins and 15 seconds on the exercise bike! By then, I was wiped out.
Finished my gallon of water today! Also, running up on top the wind started blowing and my allergies really kicked my ass today. My nose was running so bad and I was constantly sneezing. I was in total agony all flippin day! I didn't let that stop me though. I already took two rest days and I wasn't about to slack off any.
I did my evening workout of DDP yoga, followed by 40 crunches, 10 leg lifts and I added something new. The elevated leg swings. Oh man that was so hard. I wanna be able to do those for about two minutes straight, but it's gonna take time. Then I did my pushups and finally my dumbbell workout to finish it off. I am totally beat! This was one crazy day of Overkill!
