What a weird day today was! Tabitha mentioned this morning that there were supposed to be storms tonight, so how about we run early. Okay, sounds good to me. It was actually pretty muggy, but there was a decent breeze for the run. We went for 36 minutes, but had to walk up 2 hills. Hills and double jogging strollers are not pleasant, throw in the heat and they'll kill ya! It was an even split though - we ran up 2, walked 2. I also tacked an extra minute onto our run for the walk "breaks." We actually ran 3.3 miles which considering we were pushing 60+ pound strollers is really good!
It was good that we decided to run early because by 6pm tonight the sirens on base were going crazy. Tornado warnings were in effect for most of the evening. I got a mini workout cleaning out our hall closet so we had somewhere to duck into if need be. We were also supposed to meet at 7pm to do CLX Lean 3, but decided not to. Turns out that was a good decision because at 7pm the sirens started going off again and the whole sky got dark and just ugly looking; then at 715pm they had a tornado touch down at BWI (minutes from post). Scary! Chris took the camera outside and got some shots of the crazy clouds.
Once I got the kiddos in bed, I popped in CLX Lean 3 and got my workout on. No little tornado was going to stop me - HA! I felt really good tonight so I pushed it a little harder then last week. I did almost every exercise with my 12's (had to use my 10's for one set). There were a ton of push-ups in this set. The only one I did on my knees were the moving ones and that's because I don't have enough room in my house to try and do those. I'm really enjoying the Lean series. It's a great set of exercises.
Tomorrow is a rest day and then Sunday is my trail race. I've got to get up early - Tabitha and I need to hit the road by 630am!
