Summer came....

Sunny today. Record rain for June. Maybe we can plant the garden finally?
Time is flying by, posting is less frequent obviously.
Of note, wife called and said there was a 5k at CCC, let's go!
This was Thursday, and I have never run in any event for anything. She has went on several walks for charity recently with her sister, so I say OK.
Still could not run the whole way, but did decent at 32:35. My bro in law did 27:30, the girls walked it in about 50 min. Kinda fun, until I heard the winning time was 19 min for the women and less for the men. Wow, I cannot relate to that.
Saturday did 3x on 12 squats with 125 lbs, 5 standing presses and 5 curls at 65 lbs.
Did some crossfit Sunday, 12 right arm presses with the 35lb kettle bell, then 12 left, then 12 pushups, then 50 jump ropes, then repeat all 3 times. That hurt.
Ran Monday 6:23, 13:20, 29:13. Today ran for the first time clockwise on the course.
So more downhill overall, but with the big uphill right at the end. Clocked 28:20, confirming that direction is actually a little easier, but not that much considering the uphill ending.
Finally also got a new workout watch with chrono, timer, etc.
Also has a nifty heart rate monitor, you just touch the metal face and push the watch against your wrist. A tested about half was thru and I was at 155 bpm, 5 min after I finished I was down to 98 bpm. Resting heart rate in the 57-65 range, if this thing is accurate. Progress is progress, but it is slow considering this is the my 8th week. I guess we will see how things look in Sept at the wedding....
