This week included 4 runs, 3 were 25 minutes and the final run of the week was a 1 hour and 50 minute run. It also included the two required bikini body guide workouts (I excluded the optional workout this week and added an additional recovery day).
All three 25 minute runs were done inside on the treadmill. I cannot understand why these three short workouts felt like an eternity but the 1 hour and 50 minute run felt quick. I need to make peace with the treadmill because with all the projected snow, I will not be getting in as many outside runs as I would like. For my long run, I accidentally left my Nike+ app on inside mode so it kept saying my average pace with in the 9’s. I was pretty bummed out when I finished and looked at Gipis and noticed it was actually 10:13. Still faster than the 10:26 that Gipis has recommended. I was very sore from BBG legs so I included lots of foam rolling. After my long run my left knee has been irritating me. I’ve foam rolled, stretched and taken extra rest days without any impact. It still doesn’t feel right. I will definitely be using rock tap on it for my 2 hour and 20 minute run this week. This week’s lunches includes roasted red potatoes and cubed chicken covered in a spicy tomato sauce. The threat of snow seems to be inevitable. We are predicted to get 2-3 feet. Not sure how I am going to get three 40 minute runs and a 2 hour and 20 minute run in. I’ve decided to start incorporating Insanity workouts into the routine. Substitute a total body BBG workout for Insanity. I want to keep things new and exciting (and keep my body guessing). So here are the totals: 18.5 miles for the week 68.7 miles for the month 931.3 miles left (approximately 7% there!)
