This Week Last Year: Half Marathons, Weight Lifting, and the NFL

This week last year was pretty straightforward, with a few off season football notes and a lot of talk about weight lifting.

• I continued the animated lifting series with a demonstration of how to do an overhead triceps extension using a pulley.
• I reported on the New Bedford Half Marathon results, which I didn’t run again this year.
• In football news, Paul Tagliabue retired, and Adam Vinatieri signed with the Colts. The Colts have half of their games in one of his favorite places to kick.
• The weekly series about the New Rules of Lifting continued, this time exploring the fourth rule (take time to rest) and the fifth rule (set new records.)
