Started out with the intent to get 3 continuous.  Instead, I got 3 alternating run / walk.  I'll take it.  Just not mentally ready to get anything today.

Warmed up with 20 pushups and 20 situps and hit the road.  After a slow jog, started with running one light pole and walking one light pole.  That was too short.  Ended up doing two light poles running and two light poles walking for two laps around the neighborhood.  

Out - 21:11.79      Back - 23:08.69 = 44:20.48 (Some people walk faster than this.)

Nothing like coming back to reality.  For some reason, I thought I could just naturally do a million pushups and a million situps and just run.  However, I found out differently this morning.  The workout was to do as many as you can without stopping and then rest for 3 minutes before repeating.

Pushups: 1x26, 1x10     Situps: 1x30, 1x10

Threw in some air squats for good measure: 2x15

Walked a lap around the neighborhood in 31:54.  At least this is something to build on. I always seem to hit a new low.  Looking back at my workouts, I haven't maintained any consistency.  Starting over again.

Warm up with ten rowers, 20 pushups and 21 situps.

Elliptical machine at level 5.  Nine minutes to warm up.  I tried the fitness test, but it didn't seem like it did anything.  Maybe, I just wasn't fit enough for the machine to bother.  Covered about a half mile in nine minutes.  Then went at level 5 for 41 minutes for distance of 3.66.  Had to force myself to stay on since it is a cardio day.  I don't get enough cardio.
