Chest Workout
A friday afternoon gym workout is a rarity for me, but I was able to get it in before heading over to Sara's house tonight. I did a full suite of chest exercises, both on free weights and machines before finishing off with 100 crunches. Keepin at it.

4 Mile Run - North End to Charlestown & Back
Got out the door this evening as the sun was setting for a planned 4 mile run from the North End, into Charlestown and back. I programmed the Nike + Ipod for 4 miles and began my trek through the North End towards the bridge. I stretched near the good ol' Italian bocce courts then ran across the bridge, into Charlestown, along the water, past the USS Constitution, past the Naval Base, around the new high rise construction down on 5th st, before looping back. The run is here: http://tinyurl.com/hhqvo. I finished the 4.01 mile run in 31:56 for an average pace of 7:57 per mile with 540 calories.

Shoulder Workout
Gym'd it at lunch-time to start off the week. Did standing shoulder raises 20-15-10-5, then sitting overhead raises 45-40-35, then sitting bench assisted bar with 110-100-90. Also did lat pulldowns using the close grip bar of 90-80-70, then the same with long bar of 90-80-70. Finished off plate raises of 45-35-25.

10.03 Miles Through Boston & Cambridge in 1:25:45
This morning I woke up at 8:00am and was out the door by 8:15 for a planned 10 mile run. The route took me through Boston, down to the Charles, across the bridge into Cambridge, and all the way down Cambridge past Harvard Sq. before I turned around and ran the course back, with some modification to keep the scenary fresh. In the last 2 miles I was really dogging it and was "running on empty". However, I kept my eye on the finish line and finished the 10.03 mile run in 1:25:45 for an average pace of 8:32/mile. I burned 1350 calories on the morning run.
Due to some major techinical issues with my computer, I cannot upload my run to Nikeplus.com. I think I will end up needing to buy a new computer, but that will likely take a couple of weeks to go through the end to end process.
