Starting feeling: sleepy
Starting time: 8:37
Played golf with dad and grandpa at a local golf course.
Distance (as the crow flies): 6056 yards to play whites on the blue and red courses.
Distance I probably walked, since I don't hit the ball very straight: 9084 yards (5.2 miles)
Club weight: I'd guess 15 lbs, with all my gear.
Score: Awful.
Ending feeling: tired, sore, thirsty and hungry, but good.

Thursday
Didn't get out today. Exhausted. Good thing Tuesdays and Thursdays are optional under the plan. Will do better tomorrow.

Wednesday hump day
Starting feeling: groggy, but good
Starting time: 5:50
Workout:
Most difficult exercise to do: Side bridge. I just couldn't get the mechanics to work on one side. Don't know if it was my arm, or what, but I just struggled with it.
Most challenging exercise to finish: Bicep curl. Realized after I was 90% in that I had increased the weight by nearly 20% since Monday. Oops.
Exercise I should have challenged myself more with: Standing crunch. I started out really light on setting 6, then realized I was cheating myself, and ramped up to setting 10. Next week, I'll probably put it on 10 or 11, because that's much closer to my challenge level.
Sweat level: 1 - wouldn't shower except I stink anyway ;-)
Tiredness level: 2 - but I should be getting more sleep. Instead, I was up all night working up at the church.
Ending feeling: sleepy, thirsty, did I mention sleepy?

Starting feeling: groggy
Starting time: 6:30
Workout:
Sweat level: 5
Tiredness level: 6
Ending feeling: A little sore. I have accumulated "man boobs". They hurt. :-(
A mile never felt so long. I need to get my iPod all charged up, because that usually helps me. A silent gym... pretty hard to stay focused and push through.

Crap
Well, after having gotten ready and everything for this to be a hit, I hurt my back while trying to repair our toilet. Now I'm laid up, and if this doesn't improve tonight, I'm not going into work tomorrow. CRAP. This wasn't supposed to happen.
I wonder if this is a Proverbs 19:21 moment.
