Monday - Rest Day
Tuesday - Ran 5 miles
I ran around Holly's neighborhood while the kids were in co-op preschool. It was a nice sunny morning. It's kind of different running in an area you're unfamiliar with and I think this causes me to not run as well. I felt like I was dragging at some points. Her neighborhood is all FLAT. There is not a single hill anywhere. So different from the south side of town which has so many hills and the west side which is almost all hills. I ran through Santana Park which was pretty fun--looks so nice after the hard work Doug & his crew has put into it. I liked running while the kids are in school because I don't get that opportunity very often at all.
Wednesday - Bike 30 minutes, Swam 15 minutes
I biked first and did the interval track again. Swimming was great as well. Just a little bit late of a start and didn't get out the door until like 6:05 AM. I showered at home which helped...got home in time.
Thursday - Group Power & Ran 3 miles
Made it to Group Power! Actually got up for it. It went well. Triceps and shoulders are still my hardest. I was planning on swimming but forgot my bathing suit. I hung it out on the towel holder to dry and forgot to put it in my gym bag--I hate that! I'm not coherent when I wake up nor can I think clearly which is why I usually pack everything the night before. Luckily I could run instead. I thought it would hard running with no music or headphones (I didn't have my iPod with me either) but it actually was fine. I did the 5K track on the treadmill and finished in 27 minutes and kept my pace at 9 minute miles.
Friday - Swim 19 minutes, Stationary Bike 48 minutes
Went to the gym around 4 PM...never go at that time especially on a Friday afternoon. It was the only time that worked. Was worried I wouldn't finish my swimming in time before swim lessons started, but I did. Both workouts were fine. Just not my favorite time of day to work out.
Saturday - Rest
Rob was gone all day and there was no way I could run or go to the gym. Sometimes I wish my gym was open until 10:30 PM on Saturdays (they are M-F) but they close at 8. There is a market for 24 hour fitness gyms especially for stay-at-home moms.
Sunday - Ran 90 minutes (approx. 9 miles)
Gorgeous day! So much sun. I ran at Minto Brown where I have not run since last spring. It was busy--lots of runners and bikers and tons of walkers. I wore shorts and a t-shirt--was a little cold. I could have gotten away with a long sleeve shirt. Lots of people still in coats. I get so hot when I run I tend to under dress now versus over. The run went fine. I am not as sore as I thought I would be. I know I can do the 15K--wish I would have done a little more hill training. But I might do more hills next weekend.
