Omaha [20160405]: District666 in an F2 Tornado

Soda fueled sleeplessness led to me sending an out fax to Dan this morning; bad, bad FatCJS.

Mollak joined me on my lunch time run; his legs are still beat up, so it turned into a shake out for him. Tried to get after it up both Frances and Martha, will see what Strava has to say.

That bastard of a wind literally stood me up, at least, 6 different times.

All the words!
  • justinmollak justinmollak Glad I could join you for a bit. Thanks for letting me bail. Maybe I'm glad I did so that I didn't get stood up by the wind

New equipment day! I was over using Madonna's supplies. Stole myself a pull boy from Matt and a kickboard from Gracie. Her old kickboard has colorful duct tape all over it. And I noticed she wrote on the tape in a sharpie~

"Grace's Board"
"Swim Fast"
"Have Fun"
"Be Brave"

Goodness. It about brought tears to my eyes. Made my swim that much more enjoyable. :) I should steal stuff more often.

Happy Tuesday.

    • posted at 02:57:00 EDT
  • carljsamuelson carljsamuelson honest question: why do you use a board?
    • posted at 03:25:00 EDT
  • Hasheri Hasheri ^Have you ever tried kicking for an extended length of time without a kickboard. Similar to the pull bouy, which lets you focus on your arm mechanics, using a kickboard lets you focus on strengthening your kick.
    • posted at 04:03:00 EDT
  • carljsamuelson carljsamuelson ^I've done (maybe) 15 swimming workouts total. none of which had any kind of direction, structure, plan, etc. (similar to my running workouts)... I honestly don't know why people use those boards. have you ever drank bailey's from a shoe?
    • posted at 04:11:00 EDT
  • Linny Linny ^Bailey's from a shoe? Hmmm. Nope. Umm, your kick board question.. After consulting with 8 and 10 yr old swimmers, the answer is bc it makes you float so you can concentrate on your kick. But lemme tell ya, it's harder than it sounds. Or looks. Try it.

Worked first, then ran.

Brrrr, it felt so cold today. My feet got numb!


Went over to the park and did some hill bounding on the grass and then some short sprints. Then home for the core workout that makes me curse--it's hard.

Will it ever be warm?

Heard the loon on 3/31 and again today. They are so early this year, but a most welcome sound!

Bit of smoke in the air, assuming it is from the grass fires in Kansas. Down to the final 2 loads of tree branches. Loaded the big pieces last night with a skid loader, not much damage to the yard. Baseball tonight.

30 minutes cycling w/u, 60 minutes lifting (shoulders/legs), 60 minutes cycling c/d. I did this one continuously and held a 131 heart rate through all sessions, which is pretty good. I have been dreading this workout for a week. The way I have my lifting scheduled is a three week cycle of working the same body part twice weekly as follows: week 1 10-12 reps first session, 15-20 reps second session; week 2: 7-9 reps first session, 20-25 reps second session; week 3: 2-5 reps first session, 25-30 reps second session. I am on week 3 where I'm lifting very heavy weights (at least heavy for me). It actually went better than I expected, although I think walking lunges with 50 pounds in each hand put a bit more strain on my hip than was strictly necessary. Pretty please overall with how this went.

"Star Wars: The Force Awakens" DVD out TODAY!! Thanks to Carl for this info!

Song of the day: "Love Hurts" by the Everly Brothers. Magnificent harmonies on a poignant song. I did not care for the Nazareth cover version of this song. While I'm baggin', I also did not care for Nazareth's cover version of "Beggar's Day", the Nils Lofgren classic he originally wrote for Crazy Horse.
