I'm a little bit sore after running the Green Lakes 50k yesterday. Rather than sit around I figured it would be a good idea to get moving so I walked to Planet Fitness in Irondequoit. It is only 1.8 miles away but I felt like I'd die on the walk. Between being tired, partially dehydrated and back in the sun the walk was a little rough.
I got to the gym and enjoyed the AC for a minute while I refilled my water bottle. I wanted a very light workout so I started with three sets of assisted pullups (I love this machine), and moved on to three sets of 12 reps on the lat pulldown, shoulder press and chest press machines. I normally prefer to use free weights but I thought the machines would be a little safer in my already fatigued state.
After the quick resistance workout I hopped on the bike for a half hour and pedaled at a nice relaxed rate just to get the blood flowing through my legs. Then I grabbed a shower and hitched a ride home. Didn't quite feel like walking again.
