Thought I should do a little speed work today, so I threw a fast mile in the middle. I lost 4 lbs. of sweat on my run this morning. Now my data is all outta whack.
Story time - It's really not that great of a story. Yesterday I was riding my bike to work. I looked down at the chain wrapped around my handlebars. There sat a cute little jumping spider about the size of a lady bug. He would turn and stop. Turn and stop. Such a cute little guy. Then he turned and stopped looking directly at me. This put me in a state of uncomfortability because he had quadruple the eyes that I do. Make that double. I had my glasses on. Can spiders sense fear? If I stare at it, will it take it as a sign of aggression? It turns out it wanted to have a staring contest because I blinked, and it turned and stopped again. After a little bit it left the chain and crawled on to the handlebars. It continued down the right handlebar directly toward my hand. Even with as cute as it was, with my prior nervousness, I made up my mind that I would find it a new home if it crawled on my hand. The itsy bitsy spider did crawl on my hand, and I promptly shook it off. Good luck little guy. Oh, snap! My right hand is the one I use to hold my lunch! Luckily the gooey rubber of my handlebars held the lunch in place long enough for me to grab it again. I told you it wasn't that great of a story.

Day 37 P90X - Plyometrics - My legs were kinda sore from my run this morning, but I'm really starting to like this workout. Why? Because it's only 58 minutes long as compared to the other workouts which are between 75 and 90 minutes each. |
