It is the last week of the season for Chiefs home games. I made last night’s game and Harry showed up.
Our rally caps didn’t help; the Chiefs lost 4-1. Hits were pretty even but the Chiefs stranded several runners (loaded bases) whereas the Timber Rattlers did not; their runs came off of a solo home run and a 3 run home run.
Note: their starter had an 0.79 ERA; ours had a 5.8 …that told the story. Still a gorgeous night for baseball and I have 3 games left.
I’ve had to buy 2 more tickets this season.
Workouts Yesterday the university pool was closed (again) so I drove to the YMCA and used he 50 meter; turns out we get a few more weeks.
Swim 2000 meters; couldn’t get into it. 11:44 for 500, 500 of strokes (lots of back, side, 50 meters of breast), 500 of drill/swim with fins then I tried some 50’s and 100’s: 50’s were 55-56 each; 100’s were 1:57-1:58. I gave up after 400 and finished with 100 easy with fins.
Walk was kind of rough; second half was achy in spots. Downhills are still a challenge.
Today: I decided to lift…PT, Walk 1, weights. Then over lunch, a therapy walk (to practice keeping my abs tight); I think Mapmywalk missed some miles (1.13 by this app, but I got credit for 1.03.) It doesn’t really matter; 17:28 of walking that was a bit more painful than Monday but not bad at all.
PT, and the first walk; (went great)
Mile 1 was 12:59; mile 2 was a better 11:47. I was adventurous enough to try a different route.
Pull ups: 6 sets of 5 on 20-30 seconds rest, 4 more done the same way, 5 wide, 5 chins (bad)
push ups: 2 sets of 30 incline, 4 sets of 10 flat in between more PT
bench: 5, 6, 6 reps with 156, 4 with 161
dead (all low) 10 x 134, 10 x 184, 10 x 230.
curls 3 sets of 10 x 50
high incline: 3 sets of 10 x 94 Swiss bar.
Finished right about 7:35-7:40 AM
Lunch walk (not 100 percent comfortable) 17:38
