I had planned a run for today but punked out....:o Wasn't really feeling it, so I went for a ride instead.

[B]Endurance[/B]

6.2 miles in 33:16

I had a rough time switching gears because A) my bike is ancient :rofl: and 2) didn't wear my riding gloves, so the shifter was slick from sweat....

I felt really good today even before my coffee....I didn't get my run time in, so I may have to adjust my schedule to make that one up.

[B]Goat Work/Skills[/B]

Spent a solid 15 minutes working foot placement, hook grip and second pull on the snatch. Things looked really good. I really should be using this grip more often but past coaches never emphasized as much....

Anyhow, I used 35# to practice technique. My shoulders are still not as mobile and strong as they should be. My fault entirely, but I'll make amends.

I finally ran!!:pepper:

[B]Endurance[/B] :run:
5k in 28:00

I chose to run a more challenging route too. I could run where I had three small incline with the sun in my face, or two larger hills with the sun at my back. I chose the latter.

At about 2.5 miles, the sun was beating me down as I was taking on the last hill. It slowed me more than I had predicted but still finished with a respectable time overall.
