Pyth Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 Went to the gym tonight to do W1D2 of my Stronglifts 5x5. Well, free weight section was packed at 9pm on a Monday. Unusual, but then I don't know the gym very well at all. So maybe not unusual. Anyways, not a bench or rack free, most people working in pairs sharing equipment as is. Mind you, this is 4 racks and 7-8 benches. It's a large free weight area. To give an idea of the amount of people there. Anyways, I decide bugger it, to packed, not enjoyable to lift there. I'm going to switch my running/lifting nights this week. No big deal, tomorrow I'll just go at 10pm. I'm a night owl anyways. So I run, I am doing W2D2 of C25K. But, Saturday I went trail running and did 10 straight minutes in ankle to knee deep snow. 10x harder then just normal running. Surely I can push a bit past What C25K says I should do this week. Which was 1:30 run 2:00 walk for 6 cycles. So yeah, I managed the entire 30 minutes @ 5mph. A touch short of 5k, only coming in at 4.2. I'd have to set for 6.2mph to get the full 5. But I did it, 30 minutes of non-stop running. Maybe not the greatest accomplishment in the world...but I'm on top of my own personal world tonight. Usain Bolt aint got shit on me at the moment. Edit-- I could ride this endorphin high forever haha Link to comment
