Bring on the challenge!

Did my sprint workout on the treadmill this morning.  Almost like last week, although I was able to add a few more 9.0/6.0 sprints into the mix instead of scaling back like last week :)  Finished up with some strength training.  

Did 3 miles at a 6.0 on the treadmill this morning.  Finished it up with 30 minutes of Jillian's 30 Day Burn.  Tired this morning, hoping to get to bed a little earlier tonight :)  

Did my tempo run on the treadmill this morning.  Thought I'd only do 30 minutes, but decided halfway through I need to start adding mileage (why do these things always come to me halfway through my workout??)  So, I did 5 minutes each of 6.0, 6.5, 7.0, 3 times, then finished off the last 45 seconds to a minute (so I could get the full 5 miles) at an 8.0.  I didn't sleep well last night so I was kinda tired again this morning, but it felt good.  Tomorrow is easy day again, and Jillian :)  

Easy 3 today.  Did Jillian's workout after.  Hubby joined me for that, kinda fun.  He tried it out yesterday and loved the workouts.  Good times :)

Ran 8 miles outside this morning with the hubby.  I think this is the first time I've been outside in about 6 weeks.  It felt good to get off the treadmill!! :)  It decided to rain/snow a skiff last night so there were patches of slippery spots along the route, but for the most part, the roads were good.  Sidewalks were a little more sketchy, but at 6 a.m. you don't have to worry about cars as much :)  So, did the run in about 1:17, so a little slow.  None of our miles were below 9's, which is a little discouraging, but at the same time I have to remind myself that winter running isn't the fastest running - i.e. avoiding slippery spots, dark, wearing layers of clothing, etc.  So, overall, happy with the run this morning.
