Mud run! Went out on the mountain bike with my brother and scooted through mud puddles in Sarnia at the Wawanash Wetland. Had a really good time and was a nice relaxing workout- although muscling it through a few mud puddles was not too bad. Total time was about 1 hour.

Note to self: not a good idea to try a tempo run after 2 days of drinking, eating and shooters.....
Tried a 3.1 mile tempo run with a 1 mile warmup/cool down. First 1.5 mile was good then utterly painful. Tried to bear through it. Was a little under 20 minutes. Max heart rate wasn't that high- just my system was feeling horrible.......Happy Belated Easter All!

Not really easy miles, but not quite threshold miles either. Medium run on the treadmill. Had a horrible night sleep and don't think I'm feeling 100% after the Easter festivities from the weekend.

Finished it off with 45 minutes full upper body weight training.

Spinning class 1 hour plus went out on my new bike for a quick tour of the neighborhood to see if everything was adjusted properly. Will be out for a longer bike ride tomorrow!

Did a brick workout and did a quick 20 min. jog at the end.
