5-16-16 HY: T25 - Alpha: Cardio + Splits + TCF.

ShakeO in the early morning and some prep stuff and it was off to my workout.  Actually, I was considering holding off on doing a morning workout because I was feeling a little tired, but I decided to go ahead and just do it.  Good thing, because I had to unexpectedly pick my daughter up from school and then REALLY Suddenly to the store sporting goods store to get her equipment she needs for a game on Sunday.  I didn't get home until past 9pm.  It wouldn't have been the ideal day, but since I did do it in the morning, everything was relaxed and fun.

First things first.  YES! I was able to do a Straight 25!  It's been a while since I've been able to do one of those.  But it didn't come easily.  That first running progression always tests my arches.  But today, it was more my calves than my arches, but the arches came into play a lot in the second half.  It was very odd, because my calves started really feeling the burn by the Double Jack Feet, and I was really feeling it by the time I got to the Basic Jack.  From that point on, until the first burn out, I was trucking along at a pretty good pace with Shaun T.  But the second round, I started to fade by the Agility move.  I started to want to take a break, but with only a few minutes left, there was nothing except severe pain that was going to stop me from finishing.  I was happy to get a good cardio workout in because since Gamma was more strength, I've not really stressed my arches or legs much recently in a cardio manner.  It was raining a lot today, again, so the humidity level was high and the sweat was flying. 

I was able to have an intense stretch session today.  Again, got to my mark quickly.  Push hard today, but I had to watch out for my right knee still.  The Flow was as good as it gets considering the conditions.

In the end, I torched just under 700kcals.  Happy to get it done early.
