10 miles in 7:43 pace

Ran around Standley Lake with some added on in the neighborhood on the other side of the lake. Don't you love it when you just get out the door and .23 mile into your run you realize you need to go to the bathroom? I'm too stubborn to ever go back, so the next mile consists of scouting out a good spot to squat. I finally found a good spot around 1.5 miles in and the rest of my run went much more comfortably.

My pu-pu-su workout today was super fun. I decided to do what the website recommends (basically five random sets with last one to failure) and heres what went down:

Push Ups: 14, 18, 14, 14, 25

Pull Ups: 7, 6, 6, 8, 10

Sit Ups: 54, 60, 45, 36, 70

Also did a bunch of hip work, stretching, and foam roller. Great workout!!

Awesome workout! You are sooo strong--look at those PULLUPS wow!

I'm also too stubborn to ever go back, but I always run to someplace with a bathroom. I don't have the guts to squat. Maybe it's because I tend to run along main roads.

I am impressed with your pu-pu-su workout. I managed 1 pull-up last night. One. That was all I could do. And I was pretty happy about that one. You are flippin' amazing.

I haven't even attempted a pull-up yet and Nan has done 37. WOW. It's a good thing I'm just the "cheerleader" on this whole competition.

Any 10+ mile run wouldn't be complete w/o PAS, I figured I'd just get it out of the way before mile 2.

The pull-ups are definitely the most intense part of pu-pu-su. I'm starting to get calloused on my palms like I used be in second grade from crossing the monkey bars all recess long. One time way back then I had a really bad blister on my palm and as I was crossing the bars it just completely ripped off a good 2 inch circle in the middle of my palm. Hope that doesn't happen again.

Hope it doesn't happen again? Secretely you do. You love pain.

Number two before mile two. That's great!

I'm with Carolyn, but I won't even blow snot rockets. I don't even hock loogies.
