July 4



5.2 mi with 6 hills (50 min). A lot easier without stroller or the dog (whom I had to drag up a hill last time) but still had to stop at the top of hills 4 and 6. Je fait suckage.
100 calf raises, around 60 ab thingies* and 20 level-change planks.**

*Ab thingies is when I do any ab rep 20 times or until I'm bored and switch. I cannot commit to any one ab exercise for 100 reps... Except maybe med balls and I don't have a med ball.
** You start with plank w/ straight arms, go down to elbows, then up to straight arms again. That's one rep. Do 10 then change direction (i.e., bring different side elbow down first) on the next 10. These are fun but my triceps wanted to vomit the whole time. Next time I want to try bracket it with 1min regular plank holds before and after. Need some more "alternative plank" ideas...
