Wellness Wednesday...Ep.6

10 days to go until my Half Marathon!  So let's just go ahead and jump in to what was accomplished over the past week, and what I plan on doing for this next week.  Last week's plan with what I actually did in red:

  • Wednesday: 3-4 mile run 3.9 miles treadmill
  • Thursday: 30 mins bike rest
  • Friday: 3-4 mile run 4.09 miles treadmill
  • Saturday: rest, maybe a little yoga for runners Rest
  • Sunday: 11-12 miles 12 miles
  • Monday: Yoga for runners Rest
  • Tuesday: 3 mile run Rest

  • Funny story...I was all set to run yesterday, the universe just decided I shouldn't!  I got up early (4:45) got all my stuff packed up and made it to the gym at work by 5:45...unfortunately not all of my clothes made it with me, my shirt was hanging by the front door at the house...so I had to turn around and drive all the way home, nearly ran out of gas on the way, made it to the gas station on fumes, finally got home, with only about 20 mins to get back out the door so I wouldn't be late for a training session at 7:30.  In the midst of all of this, I tell Girl what was going on as I'm rushing out the door, and she thought it was kind of funny.  Apparently she thought I was losing it, because she called me 20 minutes later as I'm headed back to work...and said...Mom, this might be a stupid question...but why is your shirt still hanging up here...through my laughter I explained that I put on something different and I was indeed dressed! Somewhere in all of this I also managed to break my watch...so while there was quite a bit of laughter...there was that too!  Best laid plans and all of that!  Anyways...here is my plan for the next week as I am firmly in taper mode, so I'll be taking it nice and easy going in to the last week of running prior to the race!
    • Wednesday: 30 mins bike
    • Thursday: 3-4 mile run
    • Friday: 30 mins bike
    • Saturday: 6 mile run
    • Sunday: Rest, maybe some yoga
    • Monday: 2-3 mile run
    • Tuesday: Rest
    Catch you later!
