RUN 5 miles in about 45 mins, only walked in WU and CD
PT with JH
BIKE COMMUTE 1.3 miles, haha
SWIM? again, haha
Yesterday I rested, was gonna swim and maybe do some strength and maybe a bike ride. Eh, woke up tired and convinced myself that a bike commute was enough. Even that had flat energy. Happily I did get 10 mins of strength training in with some upper body/dumb bells.
Woke up today still feeling flat and delayed and poked around until I had only an hour to do whatever it was I eventually decided on doing. The original plan was for leaving the house for the Y at 7 to run and swim. Instead I was standing in the kitchen at 7:43 trying to think. Ugh.
I went for a run to TGP, gave myself 45-50 mins. I didn't set out to run the 5 straight through but it felt good so I did it. Out to TGP, around the pond and pavilion (with beautiful lemon colored cannas in bloom!), enjoyed the cool 86F weather, and finished up with a quarter mile on the Roosevelt track to make up the distance. WHOOP!
Later with JH, I had some trepidation about reporting this run but he didn't seem concerned about my moving into the "no walk" phase. He advised that I closely observe the next few days to see how it feels.
Today's session with him was alternating hamstring curls on the yoga ball with the plank-to-pike walkouts also with the ball. Then throw in some "half way out" moves and WHEW what a workout. I'm not usually near sweating and catching my breath there, loved this! And for the first time some upper body with the 7.5lb dumbbells. Ooooh yeah I did a little of this last night so my arms are already feeling it, but this was better in that there was tricep engagement at the bottom of the bicep curl. Feeling those right now.
