AM: 10 miles in Chi town. Feeling pretty good after my runs in CO. I decided to turn my 10 mile aerobic run into an aerobic run with some McMillian steady state paces. Started out easy pace and dropped the pace each mile, then the SS paces were: 7:42, 7:38, 7:38 and cooled down for 2 more miles. I went in planning on targeting 7:45s for my steady state, but these paces just felt good. :) Finished up with a crossfit mini WOD: 10 rounds of 10 airsquats, 10 pushups, 10 sit-ups, then did some more strength, core, and PT exercises. PM: Flywheel spin class!!! I know this is a lot in one day, but I'm justifying it because I'm trying to change my workouts to better distinguish easy/hard days. Also, I can't do this spin class in Boston and I absolutely love it. I went in toning it down, but with a third of the class left I caught up to the girl in second place. Dangit, I had to push it and beat her by 1 power unit. I'm not so sure she was as happy about that as I was! :) |
