So I mentioned that I am evaluating a TRX suspension system, by Fitness Anywhere, via a 12-week fitness program. Today was Day 70.
Although I was supposed to do a TRX workout on Friday, a crazy travel schedule kept me from it. But I got in a workout first thing Saturday morning, yesterday, so that was the last strength workout of the TRX program for week 10. Just two more weeks to go!
I was supposed to have rested today, but I am getting nervous that my schedule is not allowing me to get in enough runs, so today I did about 5.5 miles outside. Though it got really hot today, I started my run about 10:30 AM, so only got a taste of the heat.
I note that a lot of folks around here let their dogs run free, and someone jogging down the road with nice juicy (to them perhaps) ankles is evidently too tempting a target. So when I run outside I have to carry a stick, just in case.
I haven’t had to use it yet — one dog stopped about 20 feet from me, perhaps after noticing I could defend myself if needed. It’s actually not too much of a bother to run with a stick, and switching the stick from one hand to another is a nice distraction from the signals from my legs to stop running!
