Today since there was no cross country practice and I only had to finish out my mileage for the week and only had to do one mile, I decided to do a mini boot camp. I started out with the one mile run as sort of a warm up, I ran to Clayton Middle School and back. Then I went over to the wall and did 3 sets of 1 minute step ups with 30 second standing recovery. Then I went to the backyard and did wall sits on my basketball hoop. I did those for 45 seconds on because I have not done those in a while and those were tiring me out. I had a 20 second standing recovery for those. Then I did 3 sets of one minute arm swings with 30 second recovery. Then the calf raises 50 on each foot 3 times. Finishing out with the usual crunches, push ups, and leg lifts. I felt good during this because it was nice to only run one mile then come back and do some strength. When I was done I stretched a bit and now my hips hurt. As does a lot of other muscles in my leg. |
