Weekly Review.
This was the week I was hoping to get back into the full swing of things. I however started the week off lazily, not wanting to get out of bed because of the darkness and cold. Winter is my training cryptonite even though the temperature is perfect for running here. I finally got in my first real run since my half marathon 2 weeks ago in Friday. It was great being out on the trails and I just took it easy, but after finishing my lower ab on the right side really hurt. It's right down by where the abs and the quads meet. It's the muscle that helps bring my leg forward when running and is only irritated by running. Anyways I had a really good swim after the run Friday and a really bike Saturday morning.
Going forward I think I need more rest for the injury so my plan is to just cross train fir the rest of the year I will swim, bike, jump rope, lift lower body weights, and do core work. I will then reassess the situation come January 1st.
