| I took Caleb with me. He rode his bike, but started complaining about a mile in. He had several opportunities to go back, and always opted to keep going. We stopped at a park to play for about 10 minutes. Then we stopped. And stopped. And stopped. We had a melt down when he hit a curb and racked himself. The last 1.5 miles was okay. That was after I told him to pray when he felt he couldn't keep going. We stopped a couple more times, but he wasn't as whiney. It wasn't the most fun I've ever had with him, but it was okay. | |

| Day 1 of p90x. Chest whatever x and ab ripper x. It was tough, but do-able. The guy is a little annoying, but I like the vibe of the whole thing. I couldn't do everything well or with lots of reps, but I am confident that I will be able to. Two nagging questions: 1. How do I do this and running? I don't know if I'll have that kind of time. But I guess I'll just run when I can. 2. How do I do pull ups without a pull up bar or a place to use resistance bands to mimic a pull up bar? I guess I'll just google that to see if anyone has some suggestions. | | Comments(7) |

| Day 2. Plyometrics. I liked that one. The dude called it the mother of all the p90x workouts. I think yesterday was harder, but I have no upper body strength. In 90 days, I will have much upper body strength. I will be able to arm wrestle anyone. Maybe I'd even win a match or two. | | Add Comment |

| Day 3. Shoulders and arms plus the ab workout. I don't know if the ab workout seemed harder on Monday because the workout was harder on Monday? For some reason I had trouble with certain exercises that today seemed to be no problem. | | Comments(2) |

| Day 4. This one was yoga. I enjoyed it. I would like to run at some point this week, but I might just have to be satisfied with Sunday's run. Tomorrow is the last day of school, then I'm driving to Chicago for a party as soon as Chuck gets home. My p90x buddy is going to Michigan, so I'm a little worried about the end of the week laziness getting me. I think, however, that I should be able to leave school at 3, but it depends on how long some interviews go tomorrow afternoon.

| I did not do day 5 on Friday, so instead I did legs and back in the a.m. along with abs. | | Comments(2) |
