I wont skip that rest day again

musclemanmailboxSo, because I flipped Sunday and Saturday I ended up doing push-ups two days in a row! Eugh! I think I there was a logic to the spacing of rest days to the plan. I will be sure not to mess with the infallible plan this weekend (though it might be hard; family is coming in town).

I improvised the plan just a bit. It called for 2 sets of 2:30 push-ups. Beginning with close, then regular, then wide arm push-ups. I set a 2 minute rest in between and did flutter kicks/leg lifts. In case you are wondering, no, I am not able to push for 2 and a half minutes straight. Maybe someday...

That was followed by a 1 minute set of full sit-ups. I did 28 right in a row with no breaks, no stopping. If I can keep up that pace for the full two minutes that gives me a 56 which is enough (though it could be better).

Next is a 2 mile run:

Total- 2.09 miles in 19:05
Average pace- 9:07
Max pace- 6:56

Quarter-mile laps:
1) 1:57
2) 2:10
3) 2:05
4) 2:23
5) 2:19
6) 2:29
7) 2:44
8.) 2:27
