I'm not sure what day it is, I'm it a bit of a haze.
On the night going up to Yosemite, at "The Ranch" I ripped through my training set and went to bed. The next day was a long drive, then a hike into the backcountry. Friday morning was a, shall we say, "rigorous" summit of Half Dome. By the time we got back to base camp on Friday night, I simply didn't have it in me to do my training set. The next day Saturday, was a, shall we say, "rigorous" hike back down to the valley. This was over 6.5 miles of knee-joint popping downhill. By the time we got to the valley floor, after food and showers ... I didn't have it in me to do my training set. SOOO... the next day, Sunday, we drove home, 9.5 hours. Got home, had dinner and a beer, felt like a shower and sleep ... BUT FIRST, convince myself that I need to finish up the final day (that I missed on Friday) of week 2.
I did so.
I have to say that a good deal of my motivation comes from knowing that there are quite a few people watching me do, or not do my workouts. There are several determined people who have inspired ME to keep on going, so that's just what I'm gonna do.
Now my predicament: It's Monday. I was supposed to do my exhaustion test this weekend ... but I ran out of weekend. I could do my exhaustion set today, and then do week 3 starting tomorrow on Tues then Thurs and Saturday, have 1 day of rest and start week 4 on Monday. But that would mean a set last night, today and tomorrow ... no rest day ...
Ah what the heck, why not!
I'll let you know if my arms fall off ...
Stay safe and keep on pushin'
