smackdown monday

some days ya just gotta go with it, so yesterday, i kicked my own a$$. i mean that in a really good way too. i always start off the morning with a little coffee, a little facebook, and a quick sweep through my emails, then hit the workout, whatever it may be for that day. yesterday, i started off with a 1 mile run to warm up and then did day 1 of the hundred pushups challenge. after finishing up day 1, i ran another mile. the goal was to run each mile a little faster and i did just that. in between each mile i threw in bicep curls, lateral raises,  overhead tricep presses, and killer abs. ended up with four sets of 1 mile run intervals and a very pumped up upper body, especially my arms.

for some reason, i couldn't stop thinking about hans and franz saying..."Ve are goinck to pump... (clap) ...YOU UP!" so after all the pushups, running and weights, i headed to the pool, which was open on time. i went a little later just in case the lifeguards were running behind. OMG, the first couple of hundreds were awful. my shoulders were toast! thankfully, after about 10 minutes, i settled in and was fine. played around with the paddles again. they felt a little better than they did last week...not as awkward this time. i ended up with 2500 meters. after the swim, i did a 12 mile bike ride on the trainer, then it was off to work.

needless to say, after that WWE style smackdown yesterday, i slept in this morning. my definition of sleeping in, is waking up at 5:30am instead of 4:15am. i think i earned it after yesterday. hitting the road later today...the weather is primo and my roadbike is begging to be let loose.
