June 30, 2010 - Pump it up!

I did pump at lunch today and I am going to hurt really really badly tomorrow. On top of yesterday's wicked squat and ab workout, walking might be an issue. But it was a good workout, hadn't done the squats or the lunge track before, lots of pain and bottam halves!

good times!

Tomorrow is Canada Day - yay beer!

Jun 29, 2010 - squats and abs!

Well it's been a few weeks since I did this last, so I should be pretty sore tomorrow. I hope not, but I have a spa day on Saturday that includes at massage, so all is good. The gym was empty today. I guess now that the nice weather is upon us, many feel they no longer need to go to the gym. I am not one of those people!

View from the mat:
To be honest I was just focusing on getting it done. It's a long weekend here, so after tomorrow I'll probably be a sloth until Monday so I was focused on making sure what I did was going to hurt tomorrow.

June 28, 2010 - humid, so gross

Well today wasn't hot it was freaking humid. Only 25 degrees but with the humidex, something like 32. I got back from my 3.5k run and I was soaked through and through. It was tough tough tough. I'm still recovering from my bike ride on Friday, the tush is still a little sore!

View from the path:
Not many out today. I ran the pedestrian bridge loop. No protestors, hardly any walkers, no students sunning themselves and maybe a couple of runners. Not a lot of people watching. Most stayed indoors which was probably the prudent choice. I, obviously, not one of them! Good run though, took about 3 hours to cool off.

The Music:
Paparazzi - Lady GaGa
Resistance - Muse
Wavin Flag - Artists for Haiti (Abby's new fav song)
Ordinary World - Duran Duran
February Song - Josh Groban
Poker Face - Lady GaGa
You Gotta Be - Desree
