Eh, I'll stick with bench press now that I have a gym membership and a semi-regular lifting partner

Redid initial:

33 push-ups in 1 rep (not too bad...)
a pitiful 12 sit ups - don't have a good surface for them, hardwood floor or mattress...I have to find another place to do them so I don't get instant back pain.

Swing by walmart. They sell grey interlocking gym pads, meant for workouts or to go under gym equipment, for like $6 and it's a pack of six. They are about an inch or two thick and pretty comfortable. I bought them for us and it is what we use. One side is super smooth (bottom) and the otherside is like a diamond plate pattern. I use them upside down but either way is comfortable.

On hardwood you may need to put a towel or something under them so they don't slide.

Got the yoga mat yesterday.  Love it.  Situps were so much easier...

Yesterday:

Situps: 9, 9, 6, 6, 20 = 50
3 mile jog

Today:
Pushups: 20, 25, 15, 15, 25 = 100

So I've been slacking in the pushup/sit-up department.  I never remember to do them at a good time....but I did just finish a great run.  Perfect day outside:

6.13 miles in 1:05 - 10:40/mile.  I stopped a few times - a three or 4 times to stretch, once to buy a Gatorade from a street vendor, and once or twice to breath/adjust my ipod, but overall it was a pretty continuous run!

My more recent runs have all been in colder weather and sub 3 miles.  The last time I went over 4 miles was 9/19/2010 (9:53/mile), and the last time I went over 6 miles was 4/12/2009!!!!  Back in 2009, my pace was a full 2min/mile faster...so I have some work today, but I'm VERY excited about this one!  Woohoo!

I'm not sure I've ever stopped a run to stretch before, seems weird.  Good job with the run, though!  Running is way better than pushups

Thanks!

I don't stop out of habit, but my shins and calf muscles were feeling very tight and painful, so I stopped to try to stretch them out some...worked....

Link to run: http://runkeeper.com/user/kermi3/activity/32958508

Apparently my stops totaled 10 minutes - most were less than 10 seconds...the stretching and buying gatorade were the exceptions.  So dead now I don't even want to do hwk...
