My weight is 166 and I'm feeling a little banged up from last nights volleyball. I got to try to eke out a working today.
Noon workout - I completed an active warmup follow by a 4 mile run. The run started as an easy run, but I felt good enough to push a little. I ran a negative split. Finished with week 2 of the Navy Seal plan. 5 sets of push ups x 15, planks x 45 seconds, 3 sets of pull ups x 3 and C2 x 250m.
My weight this morning is 167 after breakfast. My weight is staying down due my CD diet or weekly long runs. I think I may be feeing better. I did some yoga his morning.
We played 6 games of volleyball and lost all. As much as I enjoy indoor, I can't bring myself to play next season. I think I will do the Tuesday night pick up games. Maybe I'll find a new team to play with.
Nasty weather has reared its ugly head and has forced me to rethink my workout strategy for the week. I may have to use the dread mill.
Noon workout - active warm up and 3 miles on the TM. 5 uses each of push ups x 15, sit ups x 20, 3 sets each of pull ups x 3 and C2 x 250 meters.
PM workout - active warm up and 3 miles on the TM.
I really didn't feel like it, but I ran with the RidgeRunners this morning. I only did 8 since I've been dealing with cold-like symptoms. Did some yoga post run.
I did some yoga this morning and went to the gym. At the gym I did 4 sets of push ups x 15 and plank x 1 minute. I did 3 sets of pull ups x 3 and C2 x 250 meters. After that I did some wet work (hot tub, steam room, pool running and sauna). I must admit, I feel pretty relaxed right now.
This morning I went to Kristen's xc regional meet. She set a 3 minute course PR. I was very proud.
Noon workout - active warm up,1.3 mile warm up, 3 x 1 mile repeats and finished with lots of stretching.
Mile 1 - 7:23
Mile 2 - 7:39 slight uphill
Mile 3 - 7:21
This was a very tough workout.
Last night I made my return to volleyball. We lost the match 1-2. I wasn't too rusty but I could tell I'd missed 3 weeks.
My weight this morning was 165, I'm still dealing with some cold symptoms, my sleep was interrupted and I having a little neck soreness from volleyball.
My GF diet is going well and I think I can say I'm feeling better from it. The doctor called Monday night saying the biopsy showed a 99.98% chance of CD. I hope to show improvement by my December 19th endoscopy.
PM workout - active warmup, 4.4 mile run. Push ups 4 sets of 15, lunge 4 sets of 10, sit ups 4 sets of 20 and pull ups 3 sets of 3. This run was very hard, I felt too full from my lunch and traffic was bad. I guess some times the bad ones are the best for you.
I weighed 168 this morning. I didn't sleep very good, up at 12:30 and 4:30 but I don't feel too bad. I was surprised that I wasn't sore yesterday from the long run.
Noon workout - Active warm up. Run 4.25 miles in just under 9 minute pace. Stretch.
Push ups 4 sets of 15, sit ups 4 sets of 20, pull ups 3 sets of 3 and C2 2 x 250m. This was a good workout.
This is my second day of gluten free. My dinner last night was normal with the exception of no bread or desert. I can tell this will be a healthier diet than I've had before.
My weight this morning was 166.
Noon workout - Active ROM, LM and leg swings. 4 mile run even 9 minute pace. Sit ups 4 sets of 20, push ups 4 sets of 15 and pull ups 3 sets of 3. Stretch.
I am experiencing some right heel pain following my run.
This is my first day with CD and I can't say that I'm doing great. All I've had to eat today is a bowl of cereal with strawberries, 4 slices of turkey, carrots and 2 apples. Needless to say, I'm hungry.
I haven't been posting as much lately because I haven't been doing much. In the past 10 days I've been on a clear liquid diet for a total of 3 days, had a colonoscopy and an endoscopy and I've been anesthesized twice. Today at 10:30 I go for my second endoscopy in as many days.
My weight has dropped to 165 and I'm lying in bed too tired to get up. There is hope; I get to eat this afternoon if my throat isn't too sore. If celiacs is confirmed and there is not too much gut damage I should start feeling and running better.
TM 5' walk, 15' run and 5' walk. Sit ups 4 sets of 20, push ups 4 sets of 15. I didn't do the pull ups today.
Tomorrow I've got more testing, I have an endoscopy. Dr. Lee wants to do a small intestine biopsy. I'm worried about what will be found next.
My legs were tired today and my run was less than average. I was able to get in nearly 6 miles with some walking.
My doctor called tonight and scared me to death. My colonoscopy biopsy was negative but my blood returned a high antibody which is indicative of celiac disease. I have to schedule a small intestine biopsy.
5 mile run today. It was a good run about 9:30 pace. Sit ups 4 sets of 20, push ups 1 set of 15 and pul ups x 3.
I'm planning to start a Navy Seal workout beginning Monday. It consists of mostly push ups, sit ups and pull ups. It also calls for 4 days of swimming which I won't be able to do, but I'll give a go.
Day of my recovery from my colonoscopy. Yesterday by days end I was feeling very uncomfortable. There would have been no way I could have ran or played volleyball. It was kind of silly of me to think that I was going to be doing anything physical on Tuesday.
This time will be well spent working on core and recovery.
Well, I made it through my colonoscopy. The procedure was easy, but the prep was something I don't want to do again. I was surprised that my weight didn't drop more; only down to 168. I'm not sure if I slept last night or slipped into a coma. Either way it was a very restful and much needed night of sleep. I am still feeling weak and a little tired. The doctor advised me to have no strenuous activity for 5 days. I guess I'm not running till the weekend.
Yesterday morning I weighed 168 following my run. I had a good 4 mile tempo run. After the first easy mile I did the next 3 averaging sub 8:10.
This morning my weight is 169 and I'm starting the liquid diet part of my colon prep. It will be interesting to see how much weight I'll drop during the process.
I slept good last night. I didn't get up at 6, but I was awake by 6:30; a little progress. My weight this morning was 167.
Noon workout - Knee extension, swiss ball abs, shoulder band exercises, hang cleans and box jumps.
My legs ached last night and may have been the cause of my interrupted sleep. I really need to get back in the habit of getting up at 6. There is so much more I could be doing if I were getting up earlier.
Noon workout - LM, leg swings and stretch. 4 mile run followed by the lower body portion of the U of A workout. Lunge with row, back extension, shoulder flexion with back extension, reverse extension and glute ham raise.
It seems by health issues keeps me from completing at least one scheduled run per week. I need to get this fixed. My weight this morning was 168 after eating breakfast.
Noon workout - Active ROM, LM and leg swings. 4.75 mile run, I felt good through the first half but struggled some with the last. I finished up with some stretching.
I had some post-run right heel pain. Everything else was fine.
Last night I had one of the worst experiences ever. I went to sleep about 11 and by 12:30 I woke up having what I'll call a panic attack. It's hard to explain the symptoms, but I felt like I was going to die. I hope that never happens again, it was awful.
No workout today.
Yesterday I was feeling better, so I decided a long run was in order. I went to the greenway at Haw Ridge and ran from there almost to the rowing center. This 8 mile run was the longest I've done in some time.
This morning I was more tired than usual, but no increased soreness. My weight is 169.
Noon workout - Today I did a modified WOD from 120930. As many sets as possible in 20 minutes of C2 x 500m and single arm dumbbell bench #15 x 15 reps. I completed 4 sets and 100m.
This was a fun workout and I just don't see the rationale for doing no cross training.
This is the craziest damn thing, while cooking I get so nauseated I have to lie down. I have took PB and some motion sickness/nausea medication that Pat bought for our cruise. I'm feeling a little better now but it's still iffy.
I another note, I received my colon prep today. I'm truly worried about this procedure.
