Unfortunately, I had to spend most of the day indoors studying. So by the time 4:00 rolled around, I was quite ecstatic to be outside and exercising. Especially since I've been shaking off that illness (cold?) for the past few days. Finally feeling well and rested, so it's time to get back in action!

FunFitCamp: Small group, but a great session nevertheless. Started off with warmups and stretches. Then we did stadiums (up-downs runs on the bleachers), which was a great cardio set, and then a good bit of lunges, with some jogging and other leg strength drills in between (such as straight-legged toe and heel walks and marching drills). Finished off by working out the abs and the lower back.

No workout for me yet. Starting that up this coming week. Definitely need to get my mileage back up and some speedwork in. Turkey-Day race is around the corner (nov 27th), and the pre-race chatter has started up on the milesplit.com forums. Getting psyched! This race is the unofficial alumni classic for local runners, so there's some extra pride involved in doing well in this one. Last year was my first time running it, and it was fun. This year we're trying to get the necessary 5 to field a Rummel team. Brother Martin and Jesuit will definitely have full squads, and some other schools might too. Hoping the weather holds up and at least remains rain-free. I will have to acclimate to running in the colder air this week, hopefully, though I know it usually takes me a good long while to adjust fully.
Alrighty folks, enjoy the weather and stay active!
