Swim and relax on the kicking. No pool would be the issue.

Swimming, biking, weight lifting, pilates, yoga

To force myself to get more exercise, I started not using elevators or escalators. Everyday, I climb up/down 7 flights of stairs at Bart station after parking my car in the morning (I always park at the top). I run up/down the stairs to get in/out of Bart station after getting off the train. I run up/down 6 floors of stairs at work instead of using elevator. Might not be much but it’s better than nothing.

^ smart.

tennis again. kinda rough, but I actually still got it!

just bought some cleats and a ball to get back into soccer again, yayuh

same ol gym and beach volleyball. summer’s winding down, yikes.

I would run or walk briskly up 5 floors when I was working.  It was surprising to me how many coworkers would be huffing and puffing halfway up and heaving by the top.

down to 117 inconsistently.

3 hours of tennis. might do it again, despite tweaking my wrist and right toe.

Boxing, lots of boxing tonight.  Ugh.

I hope I don’t get hit in the head too much.

Ran this morning in a sauna suit.

I want to die now.

At my company, apparently the CEO specified that stairwells were to be extra large.  Very few people take the elevators.  It’s easy when you have a culture where everyone takes the stairs and you look lazy on the elevator.

Oddly I’m taking the stairs a lot less since I got here, I work on the ground floor and live one floor up.  It did take me 25 min to walk back/forth from work, but I have a bike now.  Still, I do a lot more walking here.

Gah.  Awake again for my morning run and some lifting.  At the very least, no boxing, jiu jitsu or kickboxing today.
