I did an all terrain run to find a viable route for my run classes. They will vary in intensity and distance so I wanted to get a leg up and scout out some potential routes.

5k in 27:37

Next week, I will attempt to take a breather and relax for about 5 days. My body has been speaking to me again. It's time that I listen more closely. Besides, my wife is off work, kid out of school, Christmas and my classes are on hiatus till the new year. ;)

My wife took a week off and PR'd her squats!! Her new 3RM is 165# :notworth: It may not seem like a lot, but she hasn't done back squats since February....I think that she could crush that PR within a few weeks. She's a very strong woman with great form; better than mine. :p Just gotta get her thru the mental blocks.
