Weekly post: What did you do?

For those of you who weren't here last week, this would be our weekly chance to talk about what we did this week. You can go into detail, you can talk about something new you did or an increase of some kind, or you can just report time or days or whatever makes you happy.

Comment away!

The other adventure of the week was making Fun and Heavy Things to Lift out of random leftover and found objects and about 300 pounds of sand and a whole lotta duct tape. Whee! (I should totally do a separate post about this stuff.)

OMG PLEASE.

I KNOW. And bonus: filling and weighing sandbags = extra workout!

Going off on a tangent -- we should also have a post on "things we use as exercise equipment that were not designed for that purpose", or some suchlike; I get a lot of mileage out of my broomstick and my sledgehammer (the saviour of my elbow tendons).
