I was attending the Dunedin Highland Games on Saturday 28 so I didn't get a workout in then. However, while travelling in Baltimore on Wednesday 25th I at least stepped into one of those crappy "Fitness" gyms and did the following:
Workout was done on lunch break at work, about 40 minutes. I was huffing and puffing by the end of it. Being at such a frou-frou joint made me feel like this guy.
Oh, and in the hotel every day I did HIIT in Tabata style on either the elliptical or on the recumbent bike.

Have fun and throw far. In that order, too. - o1d_dude
Missed workout Saturday, a friends car broke down around the corner from me and friends do come first.
Yesterday I did two laps around my "walking trail" (about 2.75miles each lap) with two separate dogs. I guess 5.5 miles of walking in about an hour's time counts, right?
Tomorrow I'm going to try and get some time in with some old strongman buddies and do some tireflips and overhead lifts.

Tuesday I went to a friend's strongman gym to get in a workout. I did Olympic Lifting, and Car Deadlift (it's a hinged deadlifting apparatus with parallel handles).
Car Deadlift Apparatus (the weight lifted is quite hard to quantify on this, as it is lifted on a lever, so I will just put the number of plates on and the sum total of weight - seeing as it is a partial movement - and more closely related to a leg-press than an actual deadlift)
1x3 @ 6 plates (270lbs + 100lbs implement, around 168kg total)
1x3 @ 8 plates (360lbs + 100lbs implement, around 209kg total)
1x1 @ 10 plates (450lbs + 100lbs implement, around 250kg total)
