I did the first two sets of P90X Plyometrics (warm-up too). I was in my office and with work clothes on. I was sweaty and the clothes were restrictive, but I wanted to do something to loosen me up. That did the trick... :)

After work, Elijah and I ran 6 miles to the Rec Center for yoga class. We did an easy run... Uphill all the way!

Mile Splits: 9:38, 9:29, 9:15, 9:17, 9:14, and 8:36. I ran the last half mile at a 7:30 pace.

After Yoga class I ran 3.5 more miles on the treadmill.

Mile Splits: 9:10, 8:50, 8:40, and last 0.5 mile at 7:22 pace.

Don't ya just love P90X? I can't do it and run... it kicks my rear too much and then I don't have the strength to run!!! I still do the ab ripper x though... I'll put up an abs picture tomorrow... it has done wonders for me. How long have you been doing P90X?

I love P90X too... I was off the program for a few week do to a back strain. I started again this week. No more Crouching Congdon Curls for me!

I do shoulders & arms tomorrow with the ab ripper!! I wish I could say I had noticeable results. My eating habits are horrible but my running performance has seen HUGH improvements!!!
