Sleeping in, then p90x chest, shoulders & triceps followed by ab ripper x.  MR did them with me, he's enjoying spring break with me!

 We headed out for a run and went 6.44 miles.  Avg pace was 9:42.  MR had some leg troubles so I ran home to get the car for him.

Went to the cannery today, and had to leave early, so I did plyo early at 4:15.  Then good times at the cannery with powdered milk, flour, and potato flakes :-)

 Day 45 of p90x.  Half way there!  I actually feel like I've been doing this forever.  It's almost the end of week 7 and the end feels too far away.  One day at a time.

Glamour muscles today.  Back and biceps.  MR took turns on the pull up bar with me, so we had more mini-breaks.   Didn't help much with ab ripper though.

run avg pace: 9:26

MR rode the bike while I ran.  It has been very dry and windy here lately.  And it seems I always get to run into the wind.  Today I tried to make the first half into the wind so I could run home with the wind at my back.  Application wasn't as great as the idea, but I  was glad we took that route, because it was a great treasure hunt trip.

Treasure one was a big plastic box with a lock on it.  What was inside????  It was too heavy to bring home on the bike so we had to drive back to get it.

Treasure two:  a kite.  still in the wrapped plastic. Here's MR with his valentine kite.

 Treasure three: a dead snake...only I didn't know it was dead until after I'd screamed and jumped out of the way.   It was only then I saw the ants eating his head.

After we got home, and had retrieved the box, MR did his magic hammer voo-doo on it and we found that instead of a hidden wad of money, the gun that killed JFK, or a box of dope, there was only a universal use battery. 

No answers, just more questions.  Why was this battery inside a locked box?  Where did the box come from?  Who, What, Why, Where, When, and HOW???

p90x yoga.  MR did the whole video with me!  

Of course this was after sleeping in all morning.  Then as best I can remember, we wasted the rest of the day just being on break.  

I did work a little on the dress for the Warrior Dash this year.  Last year was prom theme...this year will be even better!! 

There was a plan at one point in time to run in the evening, but it was only a dream...

more sleeping in...I could get used to this!

Last week I had a hard time running after doing legs & back, so we went running first.  Easy slow run today.  I went a little longer today because I'm running long Sunday and not Saturday.  

Then we did the legs & back video and put up with Tony through another session of ab ripper x.

rootbeer floats to celebrate all the workouts today.

kenpo x with MR followed by 3 hours of yard work.  It was beautiful out, but I didn't run because I'm supposed to have a long run tomorrow with my neighbor.
