7.53 Miles in 1:11:27

I arrived home tonight knowing that I wanted to get in a long run. I left the house at 6:15 with the expectation of running about 6 miles. I ran all the way down to the Ashland Resevoir, ran around the entire perimeter of the resevoir, and then made my way back to the house. Towards the end of the run I felt a few tweaks in my calves, thinking I might cramp up, but I was able to avoid it.

I ended up finishing the 7.53 mile run in 1:11:27 for an average pace of 9:27.

Evening Outdoor Coed Soccer Game

Played in a 7pm Outdoor coed soccer game this evening. We only had one girl show up, so we had to play one person down, thus making things quite interesting. We ended up on the losing side by a score of 4-10, but I must say it was a good workout. I probably played about 30/50 minutes.
Morning Shoulder Workout

Hit the gym this morning for a good shoulder workout. I got off the exit in Bedford at 8:10 this morning, with a good 50+ minutes before needing to be in to work. So, I decided to hit the gym right away and get in a solid workout. After working biceps and triceps a bit last week, I decided to start this week off with shoulders. After stretching out with a 10lb plate, I went to work.

I did 20-15-10-5 of standing dumbbell shoulder raises. Then, I did 40-35-30-25 of sitting overhead dumbbell press. I then did seated, machine assisted shoulder overhead press of 60-65-70. After that I did seated, machine assisted flys of 40-50-60.
