Week 9, Days 1-3

Ok so I skipped week 8 almost entirely. I did, however, work a 70 hour workweek. And I did a 2 mile time trial I think on Wednesday to see where I was at - just under 15 minutes. Hopefully when I take my PT test and it's 20 degrees warmer I'll be able to do a 14:00 2 mile.

So here's what I've done so far this week:

Sunday - 7 mile run in 58 minutes outdoors. It was relatively warm (which basically just means barely above freezing), so I did a loop around the airfield on post. Also tried out a new jacket that I intend to take backpacking - it stops wind and snow pretty well.

Monday - 21.4 miles on stationary bike, 800 calories burned in exactly 1 hour. Immediately afterwards, I did weights for about an hour, including a few sets of squats that nearly made me pass out. Which was kinda awesome.

Tuesday - Went to buy some stuff instead, since all retail stores and the gym close 2 hours after I get off work here. But the sun set at 10pm today, which means that I can start running outside whenever the hell I feel like. Oh, also, I had Burger King for breakfast this morning. Because when I'm only given 30 minutes for breakfast, and it takes me 10 minutes to drive between home and work, I really don't have that many options.

Andy and Mike need to get back to updating. It's been like 3 weeks.
