Monday - Cross Training
I have the best intentions, I really do. I have been really bad about getting any cross training in.

Tuesday - 3 miles
I was definitely still feeling my weekend long run. This run was slow, but other than tired legs it felt decent. I'm convinced this summer is infinitely hotter/more humid than last summer.
3.04 miles @ 10:16 pace
Wednesday - 7 miles
This was a gym run. It's too hot and I'm far too lazy to wake up earlier than I already do during the week.
7 miles @ 9:07 pace
Thursday - 3 miles
I'm thinking about officially changing my rest day to Thursday since I keep switching it anyway. I did actually do some yoga, so I wasn't a total slacker. It's amazing how much flexibility I've lost in the last couple months. As usual, I have great plans to get back in the habit of doing yoga more often. It definitely makes a difference!
Friday - Rest Day
Drove my lazy butt to the gym for 3 treadmill miles with podcasts. Now that I'm back on the treadmill I have to save my good podcasts so I have something to keep me sane while I run. I don't know how I used to do my long runs on my treadmill.
3 miles @ 9:52 pace

Saturday - 7 miles
I was up bright and early and almost talked myself out of meeting up with my running group. It was insanely humid and I somehow didn't start my watch until 4 miles into our run. Miles always go faster with friends though, even in the humidity.
7 miles @ 10:00 pace
Sunday - 10 miles
This was a day of excuses. I really didn't sleep well for some reason, and I've been having some outer hip pain (which I'm pretty sure is bursitis), so I opted to take an extra rest day. I've had the hip issue before and usually a little rest and some ice makes it go away.
Rather than run, I did some yoga, a bunch of dishes, and attempted to make summer rolls with peanut sauce. It was a pretty successful first attempt.
I also read an entire book. It was a YA book, but still.
Weekly Mileage - 20.04
Maybe one of these days I will actually get more than one post up a week. I'm not sure why, but I just haven't been in a blogging mindset lately.
Also, if you could convince Scout that he should sleep past 5am, that would be great. Thanks
I think it has been hotter than usual. That makes me feel better about not training for a fall marathon! Don't beat yourself up too much about the cross training. You can only do so much.
ReplyDeleteI'm definitely getting better about not worrying too much if I miss a run or cross training session. It's not going to make that big of a difference in the long run.
