Alright, this weather is PERFECT! It's a bit nippy to begin with, but after a warm up, it is UNREAL! The temperature, the humidity, it just feels and smells GREAT! My run was alright as far as my legs go. I think I am going to stick with 25-30 miles a week until I get ten pounds off. Then I'll add by 10% until I can feel myself at the injury threshold again. I'm still going to bike up to the eight miles a day, converted. Slow and steady wins the race!! I am always telling my Weight Watcher members to never do anything one day that will compromise their ability to be active the next day. The goal is to run every day. The goal is to be active EVERYDAY!! It is far better to take it easy on an "off" day and still have legs for the next day, than to overdo and become injured. I need to live what I preach everyday. I want to get the miles up, but I NEVER want to be injured again ;) I need to run everyday. I need this. "Hello, my name is Marion, and I am a run-a-holic!"
Running 4.22 miles, 54:31 minutes, Ave 12:55, best 9:33, Laps- 16:23 (.67), 12:01, 13:07(stopped for a stretch and to talk to the road worker guys), 11:54, 11:48(.56)
Biking 51 minutes = 4.25 running miles
Yoga- 60 minutes. It was a "Yoga for Mountaineers" class. The class really focused on the core and the hip flexors. Boy, did I need that class! |
