Good morning!
Good morning to everyone in EP land and Happy Tuesday. I feel it in the air... today is going to be a good one. No big plans for today. I have some work that needs to get done in the office and I just got handed a new project that has to be completed by Thursday, possibly Friday... so I have to get busy on that in a few minutes. This afternoon, I have to pick my kids up from my dad's house, load a few boxes into the Jeep and take them over to the new house, then head home and work out. Today is leftovers again... so that means I don't have to cook! YAY!
Today's workout is a 4 mile treadmill run and P90X Core Synergistics.... which is supposed to be a pretty intense core strengthening workout. It'll be the first time I have done it. I am in week 4 now, which is basically a recovery week.... no strength training. There is a lot of Yoga, Core, and Stretching in this week's workout plan. Next week, I start back with strength work, but working them a little differently than in weeks 1 thru 3. Should be interesting. It's almost time to take 30 day progress pictures.
I'm looking forward to Thursday night. My beloved Phoenix Suns are playing the San Antonio Spurs and it's on TV, so I actually get to watch the game, even though it doesn't come on until 10:30. I'm usually asleep by then, but I must watch this game. After last year's playoff series between the Suns and Spurs when the Spurs knocked the Suns out of the running and a bid at the championship, this rivalry is pretty intense. Plus, my daughter's boyfriend is from San Antonio, so needless to say, he's a Spurs fan.
I have a 12K race coming up on Feb 16th and I am really excited about it. The longest distance I have done up until this point is a 10K, so this is a milestone race for me in preparation for my half marathon. I remember a few years ago, my best friend came over one morning in February for coffee and we saw a bunch of runners run right past my house. It was the race that I will be doing this year. Unfortunately, we don't live at the same place anymore, so the kids can't just sit out in the front yard and cheer me on. They actually have to leave the house and go to the race WITH me.
Well, I just got another call about my new project.. so I guess I had better get started on it. Have a wonderful day everyone.
