Cleared brush for 1.5 hrs with a machete. Got stung twice.

Nice day of cross training.

Found a huge, mostly intact bowling ball buried in a creek bed. I cleaned it off and moved it around a bunch. Will probably do it again today.

Friday to Sunday, ECQC in 95 degree weather. Hard work, but some pack back for my previous hard work lifting. Very nice to be a 49 year old and be able to push and plant a guy 25 years younger.

rest/recovery today.

[Chantrea]

C25k Week 5, run 1 (3 5 minute intervals, with 3 minute walking recovery inbetween) plus 300m lap swim. Tired. But feeling like I should high-5 myself--this is day 1 on training for my august triathlon.

About that bowling ball I found....

Me and "Sir Lucius Theodore Ghetto-Ass Kettlebell" spent a few minutes together this evening.

I picked it up, swung it behind my left knee, raised it over my head, did a triceps press, and swung it behind my right knee. I then repeated that motion 50 times.

Things I feel: Low back, shoulder girdle, upper arms, and (I'm assuming the expensive kettle bell wouldn't deliver this last part) my finger flexors and intrinsic hand muscles got a workout.

Things I won't do: Lay on my back and throw it into the air over my face and catch it.

Me and Bowling Ball are on a mission now. I feel all swole.

No workout today, dropped about 25lbs in the past two months and am going on vacation next week. Will hit the heavy weights again when I get back and keep chasing my goal of a 500lb deadlift.
