So I think that saying I was sore from going to the gym yesterday would be a bit of an understatement. Pretty much every time I move it hurts. To be completely honest you would think that the fact this happens every time I go to the gym would motivate me to go more often that once every 2 weeks so it would stop happening...maybe this time will be different. Anyway, deciding to attempt running while this sore proved to be quite a mistake. It pretty much felt like half of the muscles in my legs were just not working at all, and the other half hurt so much when I tried to use them that I was kind of wishing that they weren't working either. I had planned to run farther than this, but I'm proud of myself for making it as far as I did, considering how painful the whole experience was. I just ended up with a nice long walk home, which was ok since it was a nice day and I stopped for coffee on the way. I'm hoping I'll be less sore and more able to run tomorrow, but judging from past experiences I'm not too optimistic.

Back at the gym cause I was feeling motivated today. Tried front squats for the first time and boy, do those work your abs!
Deadlifts (115#)
Curl to overhead press (15# per side)
Split leg lunges (40#)
Rows (30#)
Tricep barbell curl (30#)
Front squats (60#)
Lat raises (8# per side)

Nice Friday evening run - too soon after eating dinner through. Really nice weather - I was wearing capris and a t-shirt and I wasn't cold at all. Not really sure what happened to winter but to be completely honest, I'm not really missing it!

So I almost got ran over by this lady walking her bike and then I was awkwardly running behind this guy for most of the way through Schenley park but other than that this was a pretty uneventful run. My legs felt kind of tired, but I still ended up running farther than I thought I did.
