I ran to mom's to watch the inauguration ceremonies and eat fruit salad.

I ran home via 45th, 17th and the 20th Ave bridge, stopping at Performance to see about ordering brake pads. My maximum heart rate indicates that I ran too quickly for an easy run for part of the time; I guess my legs were feeling good today.

I ran to Meadowbrook for a weight workout.

I did a few form drills in preparation for some hill running. I scrapped the hill running, along with the skipping and hopping that I had planned, due to a bit of pain and stiffness in my left calf.

I did a slightly more extensive workout than I did last week, skipping the calf raises and adding a couple of other exercises.

Chest press: 6 x '13'
Incline crunches: 25 on top rung
Leg extensions: 4 x '8', 8 x '15' (near maximal), 10 x '14' (a while later)
Lat pull-downs: 7x'13'
Standing, stooping back raises: 60 with 40 lbs on shoulders
Hamstring curl: 12 x '4' each leg, near maximal
Vertical chest: 6 x '13'
Rear deltoid: 10 x '8' (on vertical chest machine; felt awkward)
Incline leg raises: 25 on top rung, with vertical thrust
Low pulley, pull-up: 3 x '9', 2 x '8'
Hip flexion: 9 x '6'
Hip extension: 9 x '5'
Hip abduction: 7 x '4'
Hip adduction: 6 x '4'
Shoulder press: 5 x 40 lbs right arm, 12 x ~23 lbs left arm (free weight)
Face down back raises: 50 with 5 lb hand weights in each hand
Leg press: 4 x 110 lbs, 8 x 200 lbs, 8 x 200 lbs, with 90 degree leg bend

I ran home from Meadowbrook. My left calf felt fine.
