Thursday Workouts; June 3, 2021

Another brief report because who wants to read boring workout stuff!

Congratulations to Ken Johnson for gutting out the Millican Summer Series Race 1 in College Station yesterday evening.

He noted on his blog, "Very technical course.  Up and down, lots of roots, all very slippery mud and water everywhere.  There was 30 to 40 times we had to go through water over the ankles, sometimes up close to the knees.  I fell several times and was a muddy mess by the time I finished."

So yesterday in trying to build a better me, I accomplished the following:

• 90-second plank
• 40 situps
• 2,852 meters rowing over 15 minutes
• 10.5 miles cycling on the Air Assault bike covering 31:26.
• 4 miles brisk walking along The Woodlands Waterway in 1:00:54.54 (31:31.22 out and 29:23.32 back).

This weekend, it looks like I'm heading to the Zebra Dash 5K in Grandview Saturday morning and the 41st annual Windthorst Dairy Derby 5K on Sunday morning, just south of Wichita Falls.

Have already booked a hotel in Decatur for Saturday night and am planning on seeing an Indoor Football League game in Frisco Saturday night.  We'll see.  It is all always pretty fluid for me.

And to get Friday started, I put in exactly 10 miles on the Air Assault bike in 30 minutes.  Those aren't accounted for in the totals below.

May (31) GVRAT miles = 170.081

June (3) GVRAT miles = 11

Total GVRAT miles - 181.081

Ahead of pace at 34 days = 173.07 based on 621 miles (6.2 miles = 10K; 1000K)

Barely ahead of pace at 34 days = 179.17 based on 642.9 miles

And ...

May 25 - June 3 (10 days)

19.25 miles running - 35.08 miles walking = 54.33 miles combined + 15.16 miles light walking = 69.49 miles on foot.  71.1 miles cycling.  13,377 meters rowing.  4:15 plank (3).  100 situps (3).

January 1 - May 24 (144 days)

217.86 miles running - 220.5 miles walking = 438.36 miles combined + 170.15 miles light walking = 608.51 miles on foot.  473.47 miles cycling.  10,930 meters rowing.
