Hurting this morning.  Felt heavy and not very fast.  Just can't get it out of my head that my body doesn't burn calories the way it used to.  Ran the usual loop but backwards.

NTA - 15:08.97

Half mile - 13:06.72

CFRT Start - 6:02.61

Home - 13:14.69 = 47:32.99

Finished with an easy set of 30 knee pushups (which wasn't so easy), 33 rowers (with a couple of breaks), and a minute plank.  My younger self would be ashamed of myself.  For now, I'll take it.

Pushup and situp day.  Set the timer for a minute.  I love the feeling of invincibility when you start the first set.  That feeling soon went away.  Opted to drop to knee pushups when I got tired to decrease rest time.  It sounded like a good idea.

For air squats, 3 sets of 14 (untimed).  Pushups: 31, 21 then 24.  Situps: 22, 20 and 20.  Planks: 3 x 1 min.

Mental road block wins the day.  For some reason, my right knee is sore.  I have no idea why.  I think  it is because I sat for a long time at a desk on Monday.  Went for a run this morning and just wasn't feeling it.  Ended up walking instead.  Possibly 3 miles.  1 hr 5:01.

Nothing like knowing you only have to do three sets.  Easy day.  Three sets of 35 knee pushups.  I meant for it to be more of a stretch, but it did me in.  20 squats, 33 situps and the hated plank for a minute to finish off the set.  Maybe someday I will get to love the plank, but I doubt it.
