Circuits @ Hutch

Did 30 minutes on elliptical then 4X legs circuits before I had to run to CC for dinner with Dad and Lola.

Volleyball @ Hutch

Haven't been good about recording, I'm going to start it up again.

Played volleyball for ~1.5hrs with Mike, Melissa, Tasha, and Klara at Hutch. Timing is still $%^!ed but jumping decently high.

Nate - more legs

Did a light workout at Hutch. Cycled for 30 minutes as a warm up, then did circuits on the Nautilis-type machines: leg press, back and forward leg curls, and calf raises.

Taking tomorrow and Saturday off to let my legs recover for volleyball at Hopkins on Sunday night and then the match vs. Sideout (one of the better league teams) on Monday. Hoping I'll be feeling springy.

Nate - Circuits

I've been killing my legs pretty much every day for the last two weeks. 30 minutes on elliptical, then circuits of jump rope, block jumps, attack jumps, depth jumps, sit ups, and calf raises. Oww.

Played matches the last two mondays in Ben Franklin VB. We won both comfortably.

Nate - Squash with TJ

Played 90 minutes of squash with TJ. Won the first game but lost the next two :(

Nate - Waterworks

Ran my normal loop up the Schuylkill past Waterworks. The river was packed with people exercising including a several-hundred large phalanx of rollerbladers. I'll have to get some blades soon. It'd be fun to go up into Fairmount to break up the monotony of jogging.

Also found a nice blacktop surface to play street hockey.

Nate - June Roundup

It's been a busy month with all the travel.

I ran 4 miles in Cambridge with Scott and Johanna. Did my favourite loop: across Midsummer Common, down along the Cam and then past the railroad bridge up towards Fen Ditton. Hurray.

Didn't do any exercise at ECOOP, but ran about 3 miles on the river on Monday after the conference.

Woke up at 6am today, jetlagged, and ran my usual 3 mile loop in Philly up to Waterworks and back.

Nate - Fresh Pond Run

Ran down to and around fresh pond. About 3.5-4 miles (?)

Nate - Erg

Did another 4K on the erg. Yuck.

Nate - Charles River Run

Ran 5+ miles along the Charles. From 16 Highland up to the Arsenal Bridge, then back to the Week's Footbridge by Quincy House then back to the house.

Nate - Deerfield River Run

Ran about 4 miles down to Charlemont Academy and back to river house.

Nate - Erg

Did 4K on the erg. First time I've been on that contraption in a long tim. Arms hurt. I'll have to remember to get back to Hutch now that it's open again and do some arms and back.

Nate - Schuylkill Waterworks Run

Ran to the river and up past the Art Museum - about 3 miles. Ran into Park dedication with City Council and Mayor on the way home! They set up right under a bridge and I nearly ran into some VIP.

Nate - Hutch Gym workout

Did 20 minutes on the bike and 30 minutes on the elliptical.

Nate - Fresh Pond Loop

Ran about 3 miles with Cristie around Fresh Pond in Cambridge.

Nate - Hutch aerobic

Did 1 hr at Hutch. 20 minutes on exercise bike, 30 minutes on elliptical and 10 minutes situps. Best day all week. Must have sweat a gallon because the girl at the swipe card desk had all the fans pointing at her and it was over 90 degrees today.

Happy Birthday to Mollie!

Nate - Volleyball

Played volleyball with the regular wednesday night crowd. Chinese setter didn't show up so it was crappy. Played for 2 hours but intensity was not great.

Nate - Hutch aerobic

Did 40 minutes in Hutch fitness center. 20 minutes on stationary bike and 20 minutes on elliptical.

Nate - Rock Creek Park run redux

Ran the 3 mile loop in Rock Creek Park again. It hurt a lot, again. Got passed by a ~50 year old woman who was running wind sprints up the hill to Calvert. Very humbling.

Nate - Rock Creek Park run

Ran 3 mile loop in Rock Creek Park and back to Kalorama. It was first workout since going to 5 Corners Volleyball Center 3 weeks earlier. It hurt, a lot.
