Modified P90X these days

Well, it has been significantly harder to get into a full out P90 regiment since recovering from my elbow injury, but I don't think it has been bad. A lot of what I have been doing is running about 3 to 4 miles, and then putting in about 20-25 minutes of push/pull-ups, resistance band work. This has been nice because it has allowed me to get ready for the upcoming 5k this weekend, and keep my focus on the new goal of distance running. Of course, I don't want to lose sight of P90, but with umpiring as much as I am, I just can't find the hour to do it after working and then being gone an extra 4 hours to get the baseball games in. Not upset, though. I would say that the best thing I got from P90 is the drive to keep working out, even if it isn't exactly the program. P90 MIGHT just have to be a fall/winter/spring workout - because with baseball as often as it is during the week, plus playing softball... no way it's going to happen.

On a bright note, I did a light 3.5 mile run yesterday in under 25 minutes... which is pretty awesome! I can feel my light pace picking up, and am going to start my runs being 4 mile minimum in the next week or so. The marathon won't have anything on me!
