    6-mile run @ 12 m/m. It was 38degF, overcast, and windy, so a little chilly. I neglected to bring a warm hat, but was otherwise OK (2 long sleeve tech shirts, thin leggings, thick socks, knit gloves, and running cap). And I had perfectly hot coffee in the car when I finished, thanks to the spouse, who tucked my travel mug into our youngest child’s snow boot. Perfectly well-insulated.

    It sure was a chilly run today. Spring is certainly hiding in NW Ct. I did a similar run, but no hot coffee when I finished. Great idea by your spouse!

    Off to the pool this afternoon.

    He’s sort of a genius. I’m glad he’s using his powers for good. :)

    Enjoy the swim! And maybe a sauna after!

    Started at Bowman’s Tower. Still snow covered so only did one “down & up”. Moved down to Washington’s Crossing for a trail run.

    Rest day, but played around with some strength and balance work in the basement, near the pantry shelves.

    - Reverse pull-ups (jump up to rafters, then lower myself down)
    - Dips (on the stairs)
    - Incline pushups (workbench)
    - Step-ups (stairs)
    - Squats (holding a big bag of dog food)
    - Single-leg deadlift (using a huge bottle of olive oil)

    Will do some half-assed yoga later today.

    Haven't checked in here in a few days, but had a clean exercise week last week. Took my rest day yesterday and today was... awful! Slept badly, so didn't have time for workout (or breakfast!) before leaving for the day. Sloped through the P90 Fat Burning Express when I got back, but it was ugly!!! Even skipped the very last round because I was just *done*. Oh well, will hopefully sleep better tonight and get back into the routine.

    Great job to everyone who got a workout in today!

    Finally feeling better and starting to get back into it. Walked yesterday. Walk /run today. Seems it takes baby steps to get back to where I was 3 weeks ago. :tongue:
    Weather is nicer, so no excuses!

    Will try and catch up with the 10 pages I am behind!

    It's CG Strength & Agility week, and it started with and insane amount of chest presses, push ups, lunges, and squats. I've moved up to 20-lb dumbbells and definitely worked to failure today. No CG tomorrow and no time for a run as we head out to celebrate the boy's birthday. A couple rounds of disc golf and an escape room should pretty much take up the whole day!

    30 minutes on the bike in the basement this morning. The pre-workday stress relief was useful.

    Chili’s already simmering on the stove, in preparation for a busy evening of child chauffeuring.

    CrossFit inspired cardio today. Always kicks my butt (as it's designed to).
