I took some theraflu last night before bed. Much better results than the little red pills- although something should be said for the great feeling of accomplishment one gets from finishing their p90x workout by 230 in the morning.
I had driving duty this morning, so I didn't get to run and do p90x. I've got plans to run with Wyatt after work.
It was a workout just trying to drag my sore muscles out of bed to start the video, and I was truly hoping it was a short 30 minute video. But it was not to be- I saw the 59 minutes on there and cried a little inside. I knew I had to do ab ripper after and just wasn't sure how it was going to work since I was so, so sore.
I managed to finish the video, but I used light weights. I have 2, 4, or 10 lbs. 10 is too heavy for me for almost all the exercises right now. 4 seemed too easy for some of them, but I used it and figured it was better than nothing and it would probably make me sore none-the-less.
Maybe I'll get some 6 & 8 lb weights to work my way up to the 10. I feel like such a whimp using less than 10 pounds, but it's honestly all I can do right now. I'm looking forward to seeing some improvements in that department.
After work, met Wyatt and attempted to run. The first 1.5 miles were so slow. My calves hurt like crazy. We took a stretch break, and the next few miles were 100% better. Still slow but not a painful torment. We ran a little on a dirt road and found that someone had been flying a kite, and left the kite on the other end of the field with fishing line strung across the length of 3 fields and almost tripped us because it was strung across the road at knee length. It was a nice 20 minute diversion. |
