Full body weights and ab work. I did some lunging exercises that are supposed to be good for runners. I'm going to have sore buns and quads tomorrow.

Nice job hitting the weights. I hope you are sore tomorrow, then you'll know you worked at a high enough intensity today!

Rhett....Tell me about the exercises. I'd like to know the correct way to strengthen my lower body. Is there a link that shows the exercises?

Is it a special kind of lunge??? SHARE.
Here is to minimal soreness. OR, if you are like my husband, I hope your body is in major agony tomorrow so you can feel like you accomplished something.

Wear your stretchy pants after doing all those lunges.

Mack, Yep the back side is sore today, but just enough to let me know I had a good workout yesterday. The quads a just a hint sore.
Dale and Kelli, On RunningTimes.com they have some videos of exercises for runners I was watching, then I went to UTube and searched for some more. I found a few exercises that looked legit and tried them out. I think I'll keep them in my routine for a while.
Burt, is this a reference to Nacho Libre? When ever I do lunges I always think about the episode of Friends where Joey put on all of Chandler's clothes while going comando and starts doing lunges. "Lunging, lunging, lunging" makes me laugh every time.

Nice work out Rhett, when is your vacation? Do you have your swimsuit body yet?
From Rhett on Wed, Sep 29, 2010 at 17:55:00 from 184.10.154.226
Kathie, we leave Sunday morning for Orlando to spend a week with the kids at Disney World. I still have until the second week of Nov. before I have to be in top shape for Belize. My secret weapon is going to be running though. I'm going to start back up after Orlando. I'm so excited, only 12 more days till I'm back running!!!!

Nailed it.

Disney world and Belize!!! Now that is something to be excited about! Well, 12 days 'till running is pretty exciting too!!! YAY!!!! :)

Smooth, don't tell my family, but I'm probably more excited to run than to go to Disney World. It will be great spending a week together as a family though.

:). You are too funny! I am not surprised! I am the same way. Larry asked if I want to go on a cruise next Fall...I said only if there's running involved. I am looking for a Nov marathon around his birthday...he gave up!!!

ab and full body workouts are good for you but not 2 1/2 days before a marathon. What are you thinking, or has the taper time crazzies got you???
From Rhett on Thu, Sep 30, 2010 at 11:54:30 from 184.10.154.226
Slick, I'm not running SGM. As a matter of fact I not running at all... still on the mend from the stress fracture. I'm hoping to start back up running again in 11 more days. Good luck to you and everyone else at SGM though.
From Tom Slick on Thu, Sep 30, 2010 at 12:19:11 from 168.179.157.36
OOps, my bad. What are we going to do without the "airplane" finisher at SGM?

Coach Slick must be going senile in his old age. LOL.
We will miss you there, Rhett.
