This morning within 5 minutes I received a text from every single one of my clients, telling me that they would not be able to make it to bootcamp this morning...so I decided to sleep in. UNTIL TEN!!! When I got out of bed, I felt just a twinge of guilt, knowing that if I had gotten up, I would have already finished a good pilates workout and done 15-20 miles on my bike. But I also realized that I NEEDED to sleep...sleep is as important as any workout, and MORE so, when your schedule keeps you up late every night and requires an early morning wake-up call. So I had my wonderful morning breakfast shake, and I got a text from my hubby asking if I would join him on his lunch hour at the gym. Perfect!
I ended up warming up with a 2.5 mile run on the treadmill in 20:48. I still have that weirdness going on in my right leg, so I will probably take tomorrow off from running, and hopefully I'll be good for the 10K I'm doing on Saturday. It feels like a muscle spasm in my shin/soleus, but it may just be because of the speed-play I do on the treadmill...we'll see. So Ben kept running, and I decided to do an UBWO - 3 sets on each muscle group at a higher intensity level. I finished that, and still had some time, so I did some ab work, and then Ben and I had lunch at Great Harvest, and I ate that WONDERFUL Grilled Chicken Salad that they serve - soooo tasty!!!
My plan for the rest of the day is to guzzle tons of water, eat some clean meals, and maybe make it to Zumba and Yoga at the gym tonight. If I don't it will be okay, but I love Zumba, and every extra hour I spend doing cardio work helps to condition me for the long-distance endurance training I'm doing. Plus, I need the Yoga stretch. |
