Weekend Update

Overall had a really good weekend. Saturday I had to work from 8 - 3 but hung out with two of my co-workers and got to know them better. It was a fun day. After work I had to get home, get max some exercises, shower and then head over to Coronado for Mike W. 30th B-day BBQ. The plan was to meet at their house, eat some pulled pork sandwiches and then head downtown to a dueling piano bar. We ended up just staying on the island and playing Wii. Oh man is that game fun. I had a hard time learning how to play the baseball game but I was good at bowling. I can see how people can play it and work up a good sweat. Again one of those things you want to know someone who has it so you can play it here and there but you don't really want one at your house because you know you would end up spending a lot of time playing.

Sunday Sean and I went on a hike. We were trying to find Boden Canyon but never got there. We ended up doing another trail. It was hot and we got a lot concerned about max so we backtracked and hung out in the San Ysabel River. Not much of a river this time of year but it was a good 10 degrees cooler in the creek bed and max was able to cool off and dig in the mud. It was fun. It was nice to go on a hike with Sean. he seemed like he enjoyed it and would be interested in going on more in the future. So that will be nice.

Sunday night I had a football game at 5pm. We killed them. We have a really fun team and the guys on the team are fast. It really like to watch them run. They are quick and can make cuts and plays that still surprise me. Kevin played ball at Iowa and ran track so he is really good. Plus he is an overall nice guy so that's cool.

Today I went to the 9am class to workout because tonight I am headed to a Padres game. The women in the class are fun and sure do have a lot of kids! The thing that I do like about the class is that it is mostly women and strong women who want to be strong. They really push themselves to go hard and not rest. I do think that there is a slight increase in intensity level in that class compared to the 5pm. I am not really sure why but I do feel it.

The WOD was 3 rounds: 400m run, 50 squats, 25 pull-ups. I was able to do it prescribed without ripping my hands. That was the huge success for the day. No tearing! Time was 20:02. Not bad. Still need to get more of those pull-ups in a row instead of breaking them up. I also need to work on pushing away from the bar when I get to the top. Really too much to have to think about when I am that tired. I really did push myself on the run and that felt good!
