Did abs and legs yesterday, working up to 360 on the Nautilus leg press machine, among other things. After that, I did a little on the exercise bike, but I did not have much left.
Today is upper body stuff. |

Heading to the Elkhorn mountains with a friend in 15 minutes. Going to run ~22.5 miles to gauge my ability to run the Elkhorn 50k (~31 miles with ~7000 feet elevation gained and ~7000 feet of elevation lost) on August 1st.
This will be 4.5-6.5 miles longer than I've run yet. |

Impressive, PW. Be careful about the water. Where is Elkhorn, Oregon?

We could have stopped and filled from some mountain springs or some of the creeks, but never did. Next time I'll know better and do so. Might even take my filter to make sure we don't get giardia or something. I'm trying to figure out whether I should try to run the Elkhorn 50k endurance run in two weeks. I'm having trouble evaluating it... |

5 sets of each: 20 diamonds (thumb to thumb and index to index centerpoint below your chest. works the inner pecs) 20 inclined (works shoulders and mid pecs) 20 declined (same as above only different stress) 20 wide regular (works outter pecs) and the results of a 45 minute workout:

Last training run before the big event on Saturday. A deep ache is settling into all of my joints and muscles... This may end poorly.

Yikes! Rest and stretching? Do you do a cold water soak after running? It seems to help me recover, but its too late this time.
