Mudder Training Update #31 & 32

Not much to report on this one. Went to work early Sunday night, took it as a rest and recovery.

Yesterday did a another beach run. It makes running much more interesting and I try to take the trails through the dunes to simulate running in mud or dirt. It certainly makes things interesting. The wind coming of the water definitely ups the intensity level. From field 6 to field 2 and back again. Walk/run walk/run. I mentioned it to a couple of fellow Mudders and they said they would join me. It'll give me the incentive to keep up and not stop.

I'm still afraid to weigh myself. I don't want to discourage my progress. I judge it by how my clothes fit and if people mention they see a difference.

My friend Rich, who is responsible for getting me into this whole mess, is going to try P90X and/or Insanity. While I am open to anything to improve my training, I tend to shy away from these extreme workout video there is apparently the "ABB RIPPER" portion of it, which I am very interested in. Despite how much a I work my abbs, even to the point of exhaustion, a few hours later it feels like I've done nothing at all.

No workout today. Working 16hrs at my perdiem. Doubt I'll be up to it by that time.

240 Days to go
