some hiking and pullups

Hiked the easy path at Runyon today, up the paved road.  It's sometimes called the Fire Road.  I assume this is because g-d forbid there is a fire at Runyon this is the only road that can carry fire trucks.  It's an easy path but I hike it as quickly as I can and do not stop to bs with people.  I am backing off on my more rigorous ridge hikes so I can put my limited recovery energy into strength work.

I also did another day of Pavels Fighter Pullup Program.  I'm working on getting my elbows fully locked out before initiating each rep as well as getting the L-sit portion as sharp as I can.   Today it was 5, 5, 5, 4, 4, reps and it felt pretty easy.  Only 2 more sessions and I hope I can do 5 sets of 5!  Next ladder will start at 6,5,4,3,2 and I will reset the goal to 5 sets of 6.  It's simple stuff but it definitely works.
