My girlfriend of almost six years and I broke up on Sunday. We had a rocky week and a weekend in which I found myself at fault for many of our problems and although I was and am willing to fix them, ultimately she decided that it was necessary for her to go out and find herself. I love her to death, want nothing but her happiness...even if that has nothing to do with me in the end.
Sucks balls and as you can imagine and this is not the blog to talk about how that is going to mess with me for well the rest of my life and blah blah blah so I'll get back to the point.
I didn't work out much, slept all through Monday and woke up just in time for Open Gym. Basically...I missed Day 1 of the Armstrong Pull Up Program. The workout states that if you miss a day, you miss a day.
I opened up with 2 sets of 20 push ups with the 3rd set consisting of 25 reps (I really need to start knocking out more). Day 2 consisted of Pyramid Pull Ups in which I got up to 6, crapped out at 4 and then finished with 2 more pull ups...and I think that is exactly what I did on Friday. I did notice less rocking and I wonder if I owe that in part to Insanity as my core is a lot stronger.
Speaking of, my run time was 28:19 which although is quite terrible, I maintained a steady and strong pace without getting too tired or feeling like I was breaking down. It was smooth and I had energy left to continue going and even pick up the pace a bit. Not bad after a three to four week hiatus. It will be interesting to see how much I can improve come May 1st but we'll see and soon...
...too bad I couldn't leave my damn feelings on the track.
