Tuesday Thoughts

I went back to the gym today after taking Monday off to recover. My legs were very sore on Monday. I had to get up several times at the office and just walk around, as they wanted to tighten up. I went for a light bike ride yesterday evening just to get moving. I think that was a good idea, as today I felt much better.

The workout at the gym was a partner workout of :30/:30 consisting of the following: Wallball, Ball Slam, swings/ring plank, and finally mountain climbers. We stayed at each station for six :30 working intervals and then moved to the next. The mountain climbers made my quads really burn. I felt slow today during the workout, but it did feel good to move.

I found another Triathlon to do this fall. It is called the Aluminum Man Triathlon in the Dalles, Oregon 80 miles east of Portland. The name makes me smile, as it is a play on the Iron Man. I am not sure yet if I will do it, but I am leaning towards doing one more this year. For this one you swim in the Columbia river and then the run course is also along the Columbia. It sounds very scenic and fun.
