Nice run with Jenny and Lisa R. this morning. I did about a mile warm up first, then Lisa showed up just as Jenny was getting back. We ran out easy to the water stop and back then I ran just past Lisa's house. It was nice having Jenny back this morning, seemed like longer than only 8 days since the last time we ran together!
After the run, I did various upper body exercises as well as most of the post run routine from Jay Johnson (the sequel to the lunge matrix which is done before the run). It's from a Running Times article called "give me 15:".
I also did my first practice at a one arm chin up. This is probably a totally useless pursuit but you never know. When Jenny saw me doing it she asked me why?? to impress friends and family? lol
No, not really it's just a small fitness goal. I've been going a long time without any goals or with goals that were only running related. I'm hoping if I can set and achieve some small goals it can lead to better things.
Jenny had to be into work for a client, so I biked Thomas to school. It's kind of fun and a nice time of the morning to share. Things have changed a lot from two years ago when both boys biked to the same school. Now it is just Thomas for the rest of this year and next year. I'm going to enjoy it while it lasts. Although I get into work a little bit later when I bike him it is worth it and I can still try to finish a little bit early on Friday. When I had the chance in the past to get in early I didn't always take it and would end up staying later. So, I'm going to do my best to balance things out from here on.
