Phew

What a blitzkrieg weekend.  Weaver, Jimmy and Wark all in town at the same time…so much eating…dear GOD so much eating.  I am fairly sure that I offset almost all of my dieting through this weekend’s eating alone.  It was very good times.  Got a nice diner run in, some great cederberg bashing, mall run, Rino’s run, Boscov’s run.  All that crazay shit we used to do as high schoolers.  I am fairly sure we still are high school kids.

So, it’s rest week.  Rest week is upon me like a dark cloud upon the African savannah.  And Sarah, you are not the brightest jewel in all of Davey Jones’ locker.

But rest week!  I really do NOT feel like resting this week.  There is this nagging feeling that I need to rip it into overgear to make up for my gluttonous weekend, but I know more than enough to ignore said feeling.  I’m going to hold fast to my running plan.  Give my hams a rest from the extreme punishment and perhaps swim three times this weekend.  Starting today, bitch.  Ideally, I’m gonna reduce my mileage this week by ~25% but up the crosstraining to keep the aerobic burn up.

The real question here is…one or two days of lifting?  Currently I am at two days full body lifting and one day of just pullups in between.  I’m pretty sure I want to take a lifting break concurrently with my running break.  Yea, reading a little about overtraining confirms that I’ll lower intensity this week.  I’ll do one day of lifting and I think I’ll do really high rep work.

Oh my god!  Can someone lend me … 14 pullups?  Hahahaha, I think I may or may not be plateaued at 6 pullups.  This Armstrong plan is absurd, although it does mention a possible negative gain in pullups at the beginning.  I figured that easing into it, going from 2 days of pullups to 3 and then adding another day per week in a few weeks would let me avoid those negative gains.  Let’s face it, sub-par performance is a huge motobreaker.

Current goals –

3 mile – 27:00

Pullups – 8

Squat – 275 x 5, ass to grass

Weight – 215

Bada beep bada boop, that’s it.  lol, I could complete that last goal by running for two hours right now.  My weight fluctuates so radically from day to day….2-3lbs per day, 5-8lbs after a long run.

I’ve totally lost the motivation to write anything here.
