Good chest day.  Got in accidental core, as it were, also.  Lots of plank-style work.  As always, finished up with a run in <8 minutes (4% grade, 1200m at 7.5mph, 300@8.5mph, 100 at...something higher).  Did a set of tricep dips, which was pretty much the first time.  At the end of a number of other tricep exercises (cable pulldowns, bent-arm planks, etc.) I got  5,4,3 of tricep dips on bars.  It was absurdly hard.  Felt great to push them out though.  That's another exercise off the list that I am physically capable of doing more than once (along with squats, deadlifts, clean and jerk, KB swing/Snatch; still waiting on pull up/chin up and maybe even dragon flag).  Working through the lift makes me feel pretty good.

Tonight, if the snow holds off, it's another day for the gym, and tonight it'll be legs for sure.  Gonna work 'em hard.  Gotta get ready for lots of ultimate.  FITTFU and BUDA Winter Hat start on the 21st and the 2nd, respectively (or similar dates) and I can't roll in looking like a dick.  That would not be acceptable.  I got way too winded at Madison Pick Up.  As Adam called it, it was Wake Up O'Clock.  It's really important to me to be well into the top tier of my BUDA team, especially if I'm not on a team with KToad.  If so, I'd like to be the best person on the team.  That would be a major confidence booster and I could really use one of those around now.  FITTFU coming before BUDA may be a good thing, may be a bad one.  It'll probably depend on how quickly I get used to playing on the gym surface with the Tufts crew.  It'll either make me feel confident in my on-field results from gymming it up or it'll make me nervous that I'll have to take one (more than one) of these guy's spots come April.

P.S. Funny story, but I can no longer run at 6 miles an hour.  It's just too slow for me.  My legs physically cannot get in the rhythm.  I thought it was funny at least.
