Got Stronger AND Better.  First Chest with K, chest pressed 110, which might be a PR (not sure).  Had a weird plyo circuit on a medicine ball and a half balance ball, then ran a 7:17 mile.  I thought the mile would be faster, but whatever.

Later hit up throwing with Toad.  We started with the usual free throwing and I was pretty regularly out-throwing him.  That felt good, not gonna pretend it didn't.  Then it was a marking drill- no arms for two rounds, then arms for two rounds.  While he landed more shots, I shut him down on a lot of pivots.  I'm looking forward to game time situations.  My foot speed was not as low as I worried it was, but still is too low.  If I'm gonna come up against, say, Zelnik again, what I've got will not cut it.  Finally, we ran a weird modified Nietzsche and then Toad ran a plyo-100 (10 yds, 5 tuck jumps, 10 yards, 5 split squats for 5 reps, then a sprint back) and we bailed.  Right now, my abs are feeling something, not sure what, but they're sore.  Overall, a pretty legit day and a great way to use the 50 degree weather.  I'm really looking forward to winter league now.
