Two on Tofu Tuesday

Two on Tuesday  Today started off as a rainy, dreary day here. The temps were below 50 and it was windy as well. Makes it hard to get motivated that's for sure. I knew I wouldn't be doing the group run tonight, so that meant either step or some sort of boxing/kickboxing. I obviously did not get up early to work out though. At lunch I did shoulders and triceps. SS#1 - 3x8 Overhead press Overhead triceps extensions SS#2 3x8 Upright rows Lying triceps extensions SS#3 - 3x10 Lateral raises Double-arm kickbacks Front raise open to side - 10 Weighted triceps dips - 16 It was a pretty good workout despite the fact that my heart rate monitor is pissing me off.

If we hadn't changed the clocks, it would mean that I slept until 9:30!!! Wow. I can't remember the last time I slept so late. Too bad I can't run 10 miles every day, I'd never have sleeping problems ;-) More Running It was another gorgeous day. It was a little bit warmer, but also windier. Jason was planning on riding his bike, and I wanted to get in an easy run. So we headed down to the Bi...
