Jake made me feel wimpy for running on the treadmill, so I braved the great outdoors this morning. (What can I say? I'm a gym rat!) It was worth it. The full moon was amazing.
4.25 miles on the SLCC loop. I didn't time it, but I felt super slow this morning. I can't wait to be back in shape again!!! | | Comments(2) |

I went to the health club again this morning so that I could lift after my run. As I was taking off my sweats in the locker room, I was startled by a woman, wrapped up in her coat, sound asleep on the bench. I guess she was getting a little more sleep before her workout. I didn't notice her when I came back after my run, so I guess she didn't sleep through her class.
I added some incline to my run today. I warmed up 5 minutes, and then ran 2 minutes at 0 percent incline, 1 minute at 1%, 1 at 2%, and 1 at 3%. I repeated this for 40 minutes. I also increased my pace by .1 every five minutes. The last couple of sets were getting pretty tough.
After I ran, I lifted. I chose my own lifting routine over the bootcamp class that I took last week.
I was also down a whopping two pounds Woo Hoo!!! | | Add Comment |

It was a cold, but beautiful morning when I went to run. I ran 4800 S. down to the river trail. I had the moon on the right side of me, and the rising sun on the left. It was gorgeous. It made getting up in 15 degree weather worth it.
My quads and hips are sore today from doing lunges and step-ups yesterday. But, a lot of the soreness worked out during the run. | | Add Comment |

The sleep deprivation got to me yesterday, so I missed working out. I only have about a 2 hour (between 5-7 a.m) window to work out, and if I miss it, it doesn't happen. Teren leaves for work at 7 and I don't generally see him until about 10 p.m. Guess I'll have to hire some babysitters when Myles gets a little bigger.
Anyway, I ran a little bit of a workout this morning. I ran 5 miles, throwing in 1 minute pick-ups every five minutes. The five miles took me 36:18.
After running, I took the lifting/coreworks class and swore under my breath the entire hour. Have I ever mentioned how much I hate lifting? It was especially torturous this morning. Here's hoping that strength work pays off in strong, injury-free running! | | Add Comment |

I was so excited when my friend, Chelsea Mckell asked if I wanted to go running this morning. I love having running partners. So, she humored me and got up really early to put in some slow post-pregnancy miles with me.
It was a beautiful morning, and the company made the run fly by. I ran a river-trail loop to Bullion and up to 1300W to 5400S and back home. Besides some soreness from yesterday's class, it felt great to be out this morning.
Now I'm taking the kids to see the "real" Spiderman at the saftety fair at Southtowne Expo. I've got to gather all my courage to fight the throngs of children in superhero costumes. Should be fun. Maybe. | | Add Comment |
