 weights and elliptical

A twenty year old young man from my church was killed in a car accident today. I was his scout leader, young men leader, and home teaching companion for years. Sad. So unexpected. Hug your kids tight tonight, parents. And wear a seat belt. And all my co-workers I talk to were laid off last week, so I had to mourn in silence all day at work Surreal day. I really feel for his parents and siblings. I love that kid.

PM- did a bit of an elliptical interval workout, with 10x1min hard. Had some sore muscles from the new weightlifting I've been doing recently. I just want to get my legs better so I can run and play frisbee, honestly.

AM- I was pretty tired today so I only did 20 min slow on elliptical, but then I did an hour of my hardest weights yet. I'm doing more and more lifts each time. Today I added bicep curl and 500m rowing.

XT and weighlifting

I'm working from home while watching 4 kids next week as my wife and oldest kid are at girls' camp. I can't run and don't have a gym membership, so really won't be able to work out till the week after.

It rained today, the first significant rain in 2 weeks. Poured during the evening, up to rainfall of 4 inches per hour. This happened while attending an outdoor funeral. That made it exciting. Totalled 2 inches of rain. My grass sure needs it. Although it's supposed to rain every day till mid-week next week, so I guess our mini-drought of 2 months is over.
