The past two weeks have been really weird. I've been struggling to get my workouts in:
Wk. 7
Wednesday: 3.57 mile run
Thursday: 1:00 yoga class
Friday: rest
Saturday: 1:00 yoga class
Sunday: 10 mile run (2.5 on the treadmill, 7.5 outside)
Monday: rest
Tuesday: rest
Miles for week: 13.57
Miles for year: 76.3
Wk. 8
Wednesday: rest
Thursday: rest
Friday: rest
Saturday: 2:00 yoga class
Sunday: 8 mile run
Monday: rest
Tuesday: rest
Miles for week: 8
Miles for year: 84.3
I leave tomorrow for Texas (SO EXCITED!), and half marathon number 4 is on Sunday! Wow...just hoping to hang in there as I'm currently fighting a cold. Ick. March is projected to be one of my busiest months running wise (until I start marathon training this summer/fall), as I have the race this weekend, and then another half on the 21st. Here's hoping I can get over this current cold pretty quickly, and stay injury free for the month!

Wellness Wednesday 2015...ep. 5 and 6 -- the injured edition
So here we are...a few weeks later, on a Thursday...it's been an interesting few weeks. Minor injury scare (actually a little more than minor). I had a great week going, then all of a sudden, BAM...after my long run on Sunday and a great yoga class, my knee gave up.
Wednesday: 3.74 mile run
Thursday: rest
Friday: 1:15 yoga class
Saturday: 1:00 yoga class
Sunday: 9.25 mile run, 1:15 yoga class (deep stretch) -- and somewhere during this day I over did my knee
Monday: rest
Tuesday: rest
I actually had to take that Monday off from work because my knee was really uncomfortable. I went back on Tuesday, but it still wasn't 100%. It wasn't until that weekend I really got back into doing anything.
Wednesday: rest
Thursday: rest
Friday: rest
Saturday: 2:00 partner yoga class (this was AWESOME!)
Sunday: 4.57 mile run (felt pretty good, but really slow and a bit stiff afterwards)
Monday: rest
Tuesday: rest
I am finally feeling back to 100% (sort of). Missing a week of running wasn't too bad, needed a cut back week anyways, but it still can be a bit iffy this close to a race. I've got one more long run I'm planning before I start a bit of a taper going into race weekend. Two weeks from today I will be in Texas! And only 16 more days until Half Marathon #4! (and only 37 more day until Half Marathon #5!)
