Not bad might want to save your core work for your DL or SQ days (just because you want your core to be fresh for these lifts). Remember that your core includes your lower back and doesnt just function as a way to sit up. It also is used for stabilizing your core (remember your spine and these muscles are what are connecting your lower body to your upper body. A strong core means a healthy spine in the long run).
Try doing some leg raises where you keep your legs strait and bring them above your head using only your abdominals and control the negative portion (you'll feel the negative working more of your lower back, and if you hang from a chinup bar with your arms slightly flexed you'll feel it in your lats too and it really forces you to move your body as a unit. You'll be lucky to get more then a few the first time, especially if you control the negative.). Also that exercise i showed you the video of is good for the whole core too.
We'll need to do sprints together some time. I had Bill doing them in the rain up that hill in your front yard :-), and then a few longer ones across the whole field. It was good wet fun. Just like.... oh nevermind.
