Killer Combo 2-4

Ah, so with that shitty day behind us all, I hop up out of bed a minute before the alarm goes off. It's some kind of skill I have I guess, I don't want to hear that beeping so I just know to get up a minute earlier.

I purchased a bike chain as well as a water bottle holster and things the other day, so I put them on yesterday afternoon. I had my bike ready to go in the backyard, but first things first: had to do my running. I did the same thing I did on Monday, alternating between 1:30 running and 1:30 rest, four times - then 1 minute running and 1 minute rest twice. This equals 16 minutes. Next weeks interval training I'll definitely be upping the ante, because even after that one day I've done it, it felt considerably easier today. I'll probably go to 2 minutes running 1 minute rest, or just do it for like 25 minutes. So that was a success, still had to push myself.

Afterwards, I took what could be considered a semi-casual stroll on my bicycle, up to 11 Mile Road. My bike chain popped once, but no big deal, it's easy to put back on, and it's not all greasy and rusty like the old one. I just pressed on and sprinted at some intervals, though not as intensive as usual, because my joints were still feeling a bit of the impact from that interval training. The whole fiasco took about an hour out of the day, and left me feeling refreshed. I DEFINITELY feel I can last a whole lot longer during these physical activities than I used to, so if anything, that's a good sign. I walked for 5-10 minutes outside to cool off, then came inside and started working on my upper body. I did 100 push-ups today! I didn't think I would reach it so soon, but I did 4 sets to get there. 30-30-20-20 -- the last being the diamond shape. After that I did 500 crunches! Man I know, I was pumped too. that went like 200-300. I originally only planned to do about 70 push-ups and 300 crunches, but I just kept feeling the need to up the ante. Overall, today has been a success, and it's only just started!
