Outdoor day
I went for a 4.8 mile, 1500 foot elevation gain hike with my dog. We started a little later than planned and it was a bit too warm for my pup so it wasn't quit as fast as I planned. He feigned heat stroke most of the way. This afternoon I went to a strongman type CF gym in town to cheer a couple of my girlfriends on in a deadlift/bench press competition. It was a fundraiser for autism and a small low-key event. So...they talked me into making a donation and lifting some weight :). We got 3 attempts at each lift. I did 125, 130, then 135 bench, I failed the 135. It was cool because there were a couple good coaches that gave me a lot of tips about benching I had never heard before. Good stuff. I figured I would just deadlift something not too heavy for me just to not aggravate the hip/butt issue for no good reason. So I just did one DL and lifted 265. Funny thing though...it was a lot harder than I thought it would be! Of course I was barefoot and in jean shorts with no belt. In my head I thought I had deadlifted 300 before but now I'm wondering because I have 273 listed. Anyhow...I feel great and didn't hurt anything. Thanks!
