Since my last post (my super awesome track workout) I have kept up with the gist of my training schedule. I did a 10 mile run that Sunday in the rain and felt a little tired in the final mile or two. Monday I did not do any workouts, but I did go to the Britney Spears concert!! Oh how I heart her! She was amazing! And of course I had to buy myself a t-shirt!
Because I got home really late on Monday night, I gave myself another break on Tuesday. Wednesday was double workout Wednesday! I got up and ran 6 miles with my favorite running partner.
And then I stopped at the gym on the way home. I will have to post about the awesomeness that is Koko FitClub sometime soon because it is really the best thing that has ever happened to strength training. I even managed to get a perfect score!!
Thursday it was back to the track!! And I even got some amazing new summer running clothes in the mail Wednesday night to make me even more motivated to get up and head to the track.
Yes I did get another running skirt!! They were on sale! I had to! Back to the track workout, in store was 6 x 800 meters (2 laps around the track) at 3:36 each with 400 meters recovery jog (one lap). I was a little nervous but tried to convince myself that if I could do the mile repeats then I could do 800 repeats. And you know what?? I DID IT! I ran them all in 3:36 or under except for one I did in 3:37, close enough. I even did my last one in 3:33! So I think I have some speed in me yet. I just need to use the speed for more than a mile at a time.
Friday was another double workout day. I ran six miles in the AM with my Maddie girl and then hit the gym after work for some strength training. I did indulge a little bit at lunch so the double workouts were definitely needed.
Box Office Pizza!! And yes there were 4 pieces of pizza on my plate but I couldn’t even wait to eat it!
Well I think that is plenty for one post. I will continue on in a new post later about the Brew Run!
