Weekly Review 

Another week has come and gone without running. I did a decent amount of weighted vest walking at a very fast pace which was almost running and I did some jumping rope to try and get my calves ready to run again. I also got in a decent amount of cycling on my bike trainer and did some core and lower body work. The pool has been closed so I haven't swam and It will be closed again this coming week. I feel like I am really close to being ready to run again but I can still feel some slight discomfort in the lower ab. I'm really hoping to get out and run without aggravating my lower ab next weekend.

First run of 2021...and first run in a while. 
 

I've been rehabbing a lower ab strain I got a couple weeks before the Thanksgiving Day half marathon I ran. I only have run once since that race and that was a bad idea. I've done a lot of walking and other cross training over that month+. 
 

Today I did a very easy 5 mile trail run. I still felt some soreness but am feeling pretty good about 6 hours later. I'd say it's about 90%. I hope I'm able to gradually work back into running without reagrivating it.

I woke up and the ab felt pretty good but I decided to give it a rest after my first run yesterday, so I cross trained.
