Strength, Running

Early afternoon

Bench Press 3 X 5
Load: 215


Pullups 3 X 10
* Performed as supersets


1 mile uphill walking 15% grade
17:45


Evening


5 miles around Chestnut Hill in about 46 minutes


Workout comments: Totally abandoned the bench press and pullups today. Just was not feeling any strength at all. Bench pressing continues to be a plateau that won't change, along with pullups.


Went running today with John W. for the last time at least for a while. He is moving out to Seattle in a few days and most of his move is already underway. It was a good 5 mile loop around Chestnut Hill, lots of humidity to combat the great views of houses and golf courses. Over the past few years we have run together a bunch of times, and raced against each other at various Centocor sponsored races. I don't think I've ever beaten him at Broad Street, Philly Distance, or the other 5Ks we've attempted. At least I'll have something shoot for in the next few years.
