5 Hours of Snowboarding

5 Hours of Snowboarding

Sara and I hit the slopes of Okemo for what was a mixed day of snowboarding and skiing. On the positive side our passes were free and there was nobody on the mountain thus giving us many trails to ourselves. On the negative side there were some icy, slushy, and otherwise unfavorable conditions in certain areas of the mountain. All in all we had a great time and it was certainly a fantastic workout.

Got to the gym at lunchtime with the expectation of getting in a run, then lifting. I started off with a 5K at a pretty good pace. I ended up finishing it in 22:08. Just as I was walking and cooling down a bit of an urgent issue forced me back to the office early, thus eliminating my planned lifting. Oh well, I'll take the run.

Another crazy evening workout at BSC Westborough tonight. Started out with a 5K run on the treadmill in 22:15. It was a pretty good time, but I honestly felt like garbage. I definitely need to take tomorrow off from running altogether.

After the run I went to the free weight area and did dumbbell chest press of 45-50-55, then did close grip press of 60lbs for 3 sets, then did some lat pulldowns to switch things up a bit.

Finally I moved back to my new found addiction - the expresso upright bike. In the interest of time I went for a shorter 4.45 mile ride called fruitdale. I ended up finishing the 4.45 mile ride in 15:47. Results below.

Got to the gym for a good evening workout at the new BSC Westborough. Started off with a fast 1.05 mile run in 6:43 for an average pace of 6:22/mile.


After getting off the treadmill, I started up the expresso bike on "Billy Goat Falls" a 5.40 mile. It was pretty darn difficult for my first bicycle course outside of the "easies" but I had fun with it since it was challenging. I ended up finishing the course in 24:39.



After both cardio workouts I did a few pretty tough bicep workouts and a quick ab workout.

Got a great routine going.

Got to the gym for a rare Sunday night workout. Met Stever at my new favorite gym, the BSC in Westborough. We started off with a little basketball shootaround, then another couple of dudes showed up and asked to play a little 2vs2 to 11, best of 3 games. After losing the first game, we came back and won the second, before falling in the final game 9-11. Sucks, but it was a great cardio workout.

Afterwards we jumped on the awesome upright expresso bikes for a quick 1 mile workout. We ended up biking rolling thunder - results are below.




Finally we jumped off the bikes and finished off with bench press, sitting machine flies, & abs.
