P90x Day 51 - Core Synergistics, 2 mile run

Not the best workout today. I again didn't get up in time this morning to work out. Actually I did but my daughter was being a pill for my wife, so by the time I went out and helped calm the incoming disaster there just wasn't enough time to get my full workout in. I got about 10 minutes of it in though. So tonight I booted it up again and got another poor workout. It was late, I was hungry, so I did a few of the exercises, realized I wasn't in the zone for that but that I needed to get my run in so I laced up my shoes and went for a 2 mile run.

Not the best run overall, I was really winded about 1.25 miles into the run and at 1.5 miles I was absolutely dead. It took alot to keep going but I didn't stop and finished my 2 miles right about 19 minutes. I'm pleased with that time, and I'm hoping that the other 2 mile runs I have this week go better. If they don't I'll probably just do 2 miles again next week.

My back is really bothering me lately. I wouldn't doubt that it's the extra pounding that I'm putting on it with running. Hopefully this week I can rest it and get it back to 100%. I thought it was getting stronger with the Core work and everything, but here we are back in "my back hurts" land.

Kenpo tomorrow. That workout always comes when i need it the most.
