6/5/14. thurs. run. strength 2.

Up by 4:45am, on the street by 4:55am, knocked out 3 early am miles.  its really been getting light earlier, and it felt pretty warm (just over 50 degrees).  ran in a t-shirt and shorts, felt pretty good.  i have read that if you feel pretty comfortable when you first set out (temperature wise), then you are probably over-dressed and you are going to get really hot/sweaty.  I tend to agree.  wore the New Balance LED armbands again, had a little sleeve/armband interference.  funny how the little things irritate you on a run.   but they are really visible and I feel better wearing them.  the miles went by without too much effort, time was consistent with a 3 mile training run pace.

in the afternoon, a funny thing happened in the gym - I felt good lifting weights. not stiff, not sore.  the weight didn't seem terrible.  there were a hell of a lot of people in the gym, lots going on, a lot of friendly faces.  I really enjoy that when i can get it, because the road is a solitary place.  it took me a little longer than normal to get my sets in, but mostly that was due to talking to others.  and I'm OK with that.  back squats, deadlifts, front rack barbell lunges, russian twists, toes to bar. 

6/5/14. coffee. orange. almonds/sunflower seeds. thai soup. pad kee mao. protein shake. spaghetti/meatballs. salad. more cherries than a human should eat in one sitting.  lots of water.
