Over due workout summary

Sun, April 1^st – All Day 25K! Update coming soon.

Mon, April 2^nd – Off/rest day, since I ran 15.5miles the day before. I was able to get in a 2hr nap in the afternoon. Bliss!

Tues, April 3^rd – Another off/rest day. I stayed in Southern California a few extra days to hang out with my family. We did go on a whale watching tour and saw 3 grey whales. It was fun, but I forget to put my hat on and my scalp got fried! Towards the end of the week, it started to peel and I look like I have a major dandruff problem.

I am starting another round of my own MABS. I guess it should be called AABS. 90 sit-ups and 20 push-ups on my knees.

Wed, April 4^th – Travel home day. I did walk around my Aunt’s neighborhood with her and did AABS = 90sit-ups and 20 push-ups.

Thurs, April 5^th – Run day! Easy run in our neighborhood. AABS = 90sit-ups and 20 push-ups.

Fri, April 6^th – And I am sick again… Probably didn’t ever really get over the first cold and then with the running and traveling, the germs came back! It does seem to just be mucus in my sinuses and some coughing. No problems with my ears! I was able to motivate myself to do AABS = 100sit-ups and 22 push-ups.

Sat, April 7^th – Took Nyquil D the night before and slept for 10hrs! I guess I needed it:) Still feeling very congested, so I didn’t do anything that even looked like a workout. On the plus side, my appetite has pretty much gone away, so I don’t feel too guilty for not working out.

Sun, April 8^th – Happy Easter! We got up early and walked to a nearby church for sunrise services. Does walking ~1/2 mile count as a workout?? I do my AABS later that night after eating some doritios for dinner! 100sit-ups and 22 push-ups.

Mon, April 9^th – Alarm was set to get up early and take Molly for a walk, but still feeling pretty congested and run down, so I went back to sleep for another hr. We did take her for a walk that evening while dinner was in the oven – 1.7miles and I did AABS = 100sit-ups and 22 push-ups.
