Steven and I had planned to go to the Blue Mountains to do some sight seeing and tourist-ing, but Lazy, Cheap, and Car-less struck us hard. So, we stayed home.
We did all my favourite things:
Run:
Stretch (ouch):
Eat Japanese Tofu Donburi:
Eat Chimney Cakes from Kurtosh:
Eat pies from Pie Face:
Yes, there was a lot more eating than exercising, and that's the way we like it!
Now, I'm downloading Nike Training Club app so that Steven and I have something to play with the next time we hit the gym. From what I can tell, it looks like a good idea, but the initial download also took like 20 web-minutes (which is really like 3 real minutes), so I've already lost half my interest. There are bonus workouts named after (or created by) famous athletes, like the Kara Goucher Pro Running Stretches that you have to download individually.
By the way, the Kara Goucher Pro Running Stretches workout is EXTREMELY basic. It covers the major areas I always do after a run: low lunge (hip flexor), triangle (outer hip, glute, inner thigh), and IT band (twist with straight leg - she does it supine while I usually do revolved triangle). But it's missing a whole lot of other stuff, like your feet, ankles, calves, quads, piriformis, spine.... yep, the entire spine.... I don't think they did one twist....
Maybe I'll do my own post-run yoga/stretch routine to show you guys... What say you, Interwebs?
Anyway, I'll write a bigger update on what Steven and I think of the Nike Training Club app soon!
