3k Run - July 27th, 2008
Yes, today is the sheduled 7-9k run but my girlfriend (and is it ever getting tiresome refering to her that way - must come up with a better plan) fears she's developing shin spinlts again so we took it easy this time. If her pain continues, I'll be on my own for the Wednesday & Friday morning runs.

Gym workout - July 22nd, 2008
We got a late start this morning (no doubt to due to someones unbearable cuteness keeping us up last night) so it was another short workout:
5 minutes on a rowing machine
a Keiser circuit (10 reps for each station):
Then I did that whole thing again, but this time it was 5 minutes on a recumbent bike rather than rowing.
5 minutes on a rowing machine
a Keiser circuit (10 reps for each station):

Gym workout - July 17th, 2008
This morning was a shorter than usual workout because of a special after-work adventure today. More on that later.
The gym we go to, the Y downtown, has a circuit of Keiser equipment which I really like. They use air-resistance with simple buttons to add or remove "weight". So, my routine at the gym is 5 minutes of cardio (bike, rowing machine, treadmill, etc), a circuit of the Keisers and then 10 crunches. All this is repeated, usually, 3 times making a workout that lasts anywhere from 45-60 minutes. But, as I mentioned, today was an abbreviated workout.
