re: I'm a Tough Mudder *updated OP*

Quoting wendybird:" I know I could do a rope wall, even though I would look like a complete goober. But a solid wall..now that would pose a problem haha"

True, but it's good prep   Tough Mudder has a half pipe that you have to climb over.

oh I would be a sight for sore eyes! That's cool!

So I looked at the bigsur mudrun and, after talking to Rick, I think I'm going to do it   It will be an awesome way to continue to motivate me through my training.

I did some small intervals on the treadmill this evening. But my legs are still killing me so I only did 20 mins. I'll do the weight training circuit tomorrow. I haven't done weight training in a while so this will be interesting.

My motivation for tomorrow.


IDK why I've been resisting weight training. I went for a hill run this evening instead of the weight training I should have been doing.

I like that shirt!

Go get em sweetie!

Quoting wendybird:" I like that shirt! Go get em sweetie!"

Well I didn't go get em yesterday but I definitly did today   I ended up having to work several hours of overtime yesterday and was in no condition to walk a straight line let alone work out. Rest is important  

So today I put two 5 lbs weights in a backpack and jogged the half mile to the local park... in the rain. Once I got there I began the weight work outs. They're simple enough to do but not simple enough to do a lot of. The guid suggests that you do them each for 1 miniute. Once I got home everything hurt. They're a lot harder than I thought they would be but that's a good thing. I have a challenge  

OOO I remember why I've been avoiding weight training now... I am sore as hell this morning! I was going to go on a 3 mile run today but now I'm thinking better of it. The back of my legs are killing me.

My inspiration for today... I did 3.69 miles this afternoon with Maggie in the stroller. I'll rest tomorrow as I'm always tore up on Mondays.

Grrrreaat Job!!!
You're motivating me to get out and break a sweat! Thanks!

DOO IT!

Haha I had hoped this thread would motivate someone  

My inspiration for today <3


Had taken the last two days off unintentionally. I hate when life throws me curve balls. Our cat died yesterday and I was up for over 36 hours at the vet's. This is the main reason I hate working 3rd shift. BUT I totally made up for it today. Did 3/4 of a mile on the treadmill as a warm up then did the TM curcuit for the second time. Now that I've run through the exercises once the second time was much easier to make it a "circuit" and keep my HR up while doing it. I'll go for a 3.5 mile run tomorrow... or I might do boot camp at the gym. All will depend on how I'm feeling.

I, admittedly, like running better than I like strength training LOL.
