AM Easy run on Embarcadero. Saw a Coast Guard helicopter take off. Legs felt a little heavy stil from Saturday's race. 8:20ish average pace - a little fast for an easy run.

PM Day 1 of Project Pull Up. I am following the Marine training program for women to meet the new (now delayed) requirement of 3 pull ups. Why? Like many runners, I virtually ignore upper body strength, but I think it's important for overall fitness. This gives me a goal to work toward. On day 1, I could do 1 full pull up. 

3 x 10 assisted pull ups (40 pounds of assist)

3 x 15 of bent over rows with barbells (30 pounds)

3 x 15 3 way shoulder raises (5 pound dumb bells)

3 x 10 of dips - first set 7 unassited; second and third sets 30 pounds of assist
