Training Log: Entry 3540

**OPERATION PLANET MONGO**

AM Workout (0355 wake up via alarm)

*Tactical Barbell Operator* Cycle 1, Week 5, Workout 4

"GO RUCK YOURSELF"

Treadmill walk w/45lb vest

* Time: 90 minutes

* Distance: 5.25 miles

* Incline: 5 for first 2.5 miles, 6 for remainder

Notes:

* I pinched a nerve in my back on something in yesterday's workout, and was concerned it would make sleep difficult, but aside from waking up a little stiff, I felt good enough for this.  The walk the day after deadlifts continues to be very tonic.

* We had a great night of Tang Soo Do yesterday.  We had back to back classes, and on the second one, only our family showed up, so we just did a sparring clinic.  Full hour of various matches with various conditions set (kicks only, non-dominant side only, etc).  We eventually did a hands only match and I went up against the senior black belt and just HAD to go back to my boxing days, put up the peek a boo guard and just bobbed and weaved right through their offense into 3 consecutive body blows.

* My new tactical plate carrier arrived yesterday, and I think I'll give it a go with Murph tomorrow.  

* Wasn't able to get in my daily sandbag yesterday: schedule was just too crazy.

* Weighed in at 80.4kg this morning, which is an increase from last week, but continues a downward trend over the past 4 weeks of Thursday weigh ins.
