Total - 10:08:00


How to achieve world class fitness!!

Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat. Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, C&J, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast. Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense. Regularly learn and play new sports.

Today I took my girls down to the ocean front to watch Lisa and her daughter run a 5k. They did great! Lisa's daughter was the winner of the 14 and under group. Great job ladies!!

I then headed home for an easy bike followed by a hard run. I did 45 minutes on the bike spinning at >100 RPM. I then changed into my running gear and did a 53:54 run covering 7.3 miles. It was a good day and that is pretty much my final bike/run workout of this program. The rest of my bike/run workouts are going to be easy and short.

I took my bike to 3 sports in Richmond today. A company called Tri Bike transport is going to pick up my bike and take it to Louisville. The nice thing about Tri Bike transport is I only have to take the pedals off. The bike is shipped on a special trailer completely intact. I'm feeling like I left a child with a stranger! I'm going to have nightmares about them forgeting my bike until I see it in Louisville Thursday. The company owner has promised me a call Monday morning when they pick it up. I'm hoping everything goes well.

Have a good weekend!
