6 mile run, 1x300m stair climb carrying heavy weight, 1x400m @ 68 sec, followed by circuit training

The last two weeks have been very busy with gigs playing the piano. My training has been very inconsistent but my piano playing is getting better. Today I was able to find the time and energy to get a fun workout in. I did a 6 mile run that went up 2000 ft elevation. I finished with a 400m and some plyometrics. In the middle of my run, I found a huge set of stairs and run up as fast as I could carrying a cinder block. I also did some plyometrics, push ups and pull ups.

Easy 6 mile run

The last few days I have missed a few days of running because of a busy schedule. I also was fighting a cold that I was able to fight off in one day of having bad symptoms. I am pretty sure I have found the cure to the common cold that works for me. I might share it in a later post.

10 mile run on the nike campus with surges

Today was a nice fall day. I went to the Nike campus and put in 10 miles. I decided to surge up the hills to get a little more work in. I also stopped and did some ab work and a few hundred push in sets of about 50.

Americans get sick more often than Europeans or people from any other industrialized nation. This is a very sad statistic. Excellent news for the multi-billion dollar drug companies.
