Day 33

So I'm blogging from my phone (how cool is that haha) because i dont have internet in my new apartment yet. unfortunately for you that means that no picture (i haven't figured out how to do that yet).

I was moving in today but I didn't feel like that was enough of a workout so I decided to strap on the VFFs and do sprints up a pretty steep hill near my house. I sprinted up and jogged down 5 times before the heat got the best of me and I decided to head inside. Great workout though.

Day 32

Ugh day 32 was rough. I am not used to running in this heat. I usually run late at night when things are nice and cool. I went for a 3 mile run but it felt like 5. Everything was sore and I had to walk several times. Its amazing how much the weather is a factor when running.

Day 33 will be in State College. I might not be able to update for a while until I get internet in my new apartment, but trust me I'll still be working out.

WB in 3

Day 31

I did some more push-ups today. I increased my number from 60 to 70 and I did 20, rest, 20 rest, 10, rest, 20.

It felt good to see some improvement.

Back to State College tomorrow!

Day 30

I found some sweet elastic exercise bands and i decided to use them to work some muscles I haven't had the chance to work in a while. I focused on my back and biceps. I really concentrated on going slow with them to maximize how much work I was doing with each pull. No cheating.

Day 29

Day 29 was just a quick run around the neighborhood. Since this is the week before the WB Triathlon I'm taking it kind of easy. I did get a pretty sweet blister on my foot but other than that not much to report.

Day 28

Day 28 was a push-up day. I only did 60 but my goal was to start stringing more of them together without taking a break. I did 4 sets of 10 and then 1 set of 20 to finish it off. It felt pretty good so I must be improving.

I'm going to try another long run tomorrow.

Day 27

Day 27 was spent in State College moving all of my furniture from my living room to my bedroom. It doesn't sound like much of a workout but I worked up quite a sweat doing it all by myself.

The Wilkes-Barre triathlon is in a week. Its an Olympic distance but thankfully I'm doing it as part of a relay which means I'm doing the swim, someone else is doing the bike and a third person is doing the run. Its going to be a 1500m (about 1640 yards) swim for me which is looooooong. However, I felt pretty good at the end of the swim during the Steelman so I think 1500m is doable. It just might take me a while haha.

It'll be a good way to end the summer and start the semester I think.
