Once again, I've stopped off after working out to run errands, and gotten drenched. Unlike a fortnight ago, however, I didn't overdo things, and my foot is okay.

I did a somewhat abbreviated workout, and tried not to push myself, because it had been a couple of weeks, and because my heel is still tender.

Meanwhile, I continue to dither about my high school reunion. [livejournal.com profile] adrian_turtle has helped by pointing out that we're all New Yorkers, a lot of us are still living around here, and being unemployed isn't that unusual. I emailed the person who's organizing a get-together at the Oyster Bar tomorrow (separate from the Sunday breakfast-assembly-et cetera at the high school) and said to list me as "Vicki+1" because, assuming I make it, I'll be bringing a partner. (The final decision is going to depend on, among other things, the state of my foot.)

Workout details:
Cardio, 21 minutes, top 161. I'd like to get back to 33 minutes, but the heart rate is pleasing. As I was finishing, the woman at the next bike commented that I'd done well, including "a lot of weight."

Chest press, 70 pounds, 12, 11
Tricep extension, 50 pounds, 12, 8
Calf raise, 75 pounds, 12; 70 pounds, 12, 8
Row, 80 pounds, 2 sets of 15. My right shoulder hurt while I was stretching after the second set, so I didn't do a third.
Leg press, 300 pounds, 12; 250 pounds, 15. This may not have been the best idea of the week, but not only is the weight work generally addictive, I was missing this specific machine.
Balance ~fly, 50 pounds, 15 reps with each leg forward

Crunches, 3 sets of 30
Arches, 3 sets of 17
Tree, 4 sets of {3 on each leg} [I'd neglected to write down these three, but they're the closest to invariant of my workout, so I can do it from memory.]
Balance lateral raise, 5 pounds each hand, 2 sets of 15; 3 pounds each hand, 15. I didn't slip off the hemisphere at all this time.
Bicep curl, 25 pounds, 3 sets of 25 (not the 15 I wrote down)

Stretches

I really understand not wanting to go to your high school reunion if things aren't going swimmingly, because questions might be awkward. But honestly, people aren't going to care.

But following the conversation on Yahoo Groups, it will be a very non-fannish event.
