Quick workout to get something in.  Did my favorite lifts and left.  Walked for 17 minutes.  My legs are starting to feel normal again.  I'll start running again soon.

My daughter was motivated to go running this morning.  I tried to make her go back to sleep, but she was so excited.  We ran/walked to her school.  On the way home, her feet hurt so she made me carry her.  Next time, we will bring water.  Not much of a workout, but it was time well spent.

Walked for 25 minutes.  Got 4 short hills in walking (but it might have been five).  Attempted to sprint the same hill 4 times, but it probably looked more like a speed walk up the hill.

Just wasn't feeling it this morning.  Both knees were aching.  Walked the three miles instead of jogging it.  Just happy to be up and out and have something on the board.  Two laps around the neighborhood.  Total time - 59:47.91

Leg press: 280 - 2x6, 300 - 1x6

Walked the mile.  Added in 8 hill sprints.  The hill is short.  Sprint up the hill.  Walk down the hill.  Legs feel good today.

This is my favorite part of the lifting cycle.  I like doing less reps and finishing up faster in the gym.

My legs were a little stiff.  I was surprised.  Two laps around the neighborhood.  It felt good.  I felt like I was setting a world record.  Then I looked at my watch and discovered I wasn't.

Out - 18:54.82.        Back - 18:20.63 = 37:15.45

Busy week.  Let my schedule get the best of me.

Bench: 225 - 3x8

Deadlift: 225 - 3x6 (handles up.  Isn't it funny that I can do more reps on the bench? I just hate legs.)

Seated Row: 200 - 1x6, 220 - 2x6

Took off for a 30 minute walk.  Was going to add some hills in but opted out. 33:24 total time out and about.  Not a great workout but better than no workout.

Lifted weights but forgot to record.  See Friday's workout from this week to get an idea of what I did.
