Week 7 of OBX Half Training

Tags: podrey @ 8:04 am

Monday: Bodysculpt strength training class.  An OK workout.

Tuesday: Four mile run on the trails at work.  Absolutely beautiful day for running.  I ran all the hills - all of them, in fact i made no stops whatsoever - and didn’t even have to be bitchy with myself in order to do it.

Wednesday: Step aerobics - this class was hard and fun.  I’m not having a real great week in how i feel, and i was tired and very nearly ditched the class b/c of general lethargic-ness.  Once i got into it, though, i really pushed myself.

Thursday: Rest day.

Friday: Despite feeling crappy, i ran 3+ miles at lunchtime anyway.  Once again, no stopping on any hills.  It’s weird how i don’t even notice the smaller hills anymore.  And on the bigger hills, it’s really all about the breathing.

Saturday: A leisurely 2-mile walk at Pet Day.  I had intentions for a workout at home, too, but…alas.

Sunday: Eight and a half miles around (and around and around) Shelley Lake.   I think it’s okay to do long runs in a mostly flat setting, since the half will be mostly flat.  Another beautiful morning for a run.
