p90x chest, shoulders & back.   Tried to up the weights- by 2 pounds, and it made the sets seem twice as hard!!  Oh, well- little by little.  I can see improvements on all the push-ups except the one armed variety.  It's all I can do to just bend my elbow and straighten it.

Ab ripper x...  same old, same old.  16 minutes of annoying.  I need a new attitude.   Since it's at the end of the first video, I can't change it to the "shut up Tony" variety.  I did like the part of the chest video where the lawyer told Tony to "get out of my face."  Sweet!!!!  He really is stirring up a big pot of trouble :-)

After playing hide and seek with my headlamp (MR used it and left it in the garage), I finally got out for a quick run.  I just set out to run, and I felt great.  Increased speed for mile 2, and thought I'd cut back & had slowed down for mile 3, but I guess I just maintained because it was the same as 2 (what a nice surprise).  Tried to kick it up for the last .2..... just a nice run.  The weather was beautiful.  Not humid, dark & cool enough to get some breath fog going, but warm enough to just wear a t-shirt and shorts.

paces were 9:27, 8:31, 8:29, 7:40

Run this afternoon again if it's not raining.  4.01 slower miles with MR.  It was tough to get going...that first mile was never going to end!  We were just going to do 3.5 and ended up tacking another .5 on after arriving at home so we could finish 4.  The .01 is just for me to get an even # :-)

beautiful little progressive run right there!! Nice job powering through annoying Tony - I think he was the biggest reason I stopped doing it with Craig. I just want to kick him most days, but my TV cost too much to replace.
