Week 1 ended up being a little less mileage than planned, mainly due to the triathlon. It's still early though, and I'm still running more than I was at this time of year while training for the Columbus Marathon. And even though the triathlon wasn't all running, it was still about 1 hour and 38 minutes of physical activity, with 3 good miles of running after I was already worn out, so that should be good for endurance. I'll write about the triathlon in a separate post later...with pictures too.
Here is the plan for Week 2:
My goal for this week is going to be to do more of the core and weight training. I didn't make it past Monday and Tuesday with it last week. I'm going to have to do my long run after work on Friday so I had to change the schedule around slightly. Michael said he would run with me Saturday morning, but not a long run...and not quite sure I'll actually be able to convince him to do any run, but I'll try. It would be nice to get a good run in before all the
Thursday and Friday I was still in Florida for work, so I was stuck on the treadmill, but got in some quality Law & Order SVU watching so it wasn’t too bad. Thursday I did a 1 mile warm-up, 2x2 mile split tempo with a jog recovery in between, and then 1 mi cool down. My Achilles started bothering me during the tempo, but luckily it felt fine Friday for my easy 7 miles. This weekend was a step-back week so we did 11 miles and got poured on (these weatherman are ALWAYS wrong), but it actually felt refreshing and didn’t impact the run too much. Today I did another 7 miles. Can’t wait to read about the Tri…I think you should include the small world fact about Meghann haha!
