As usual this week included 4 runs and 3 resistance BBG workouts. I'm really excited to report that my arms are getting a lot stronger. I am able to do all the required push-ups and even completed the incline push-ups (something I didn't even attempt round 1). I am also working to contain my hatred for the dreadmill... I mean... treadmill. I think I made some steps forward this week. My 3 short runs were 45 minutes each. These were all done inside on the treadmill. I progressively increased the speed which kept me occupied and enjoying the workouts. Saturday was my long run. It was 1hour and 25 minutes with a goal pace of 10:20 per mile. Some advice: don't eat a donut (espicaly if you don't usually ever eat them) before a run. My stomach was irritated the whole time. It put a damper on the run but it felt good to get outside and enjoy a mild temperature day. I really didn't push myself on the run. I am almost done with the "building up" phase so I would have been happy with a 10:20pace but I ended up finishing with a 9:51 per mile average! I was pretty excited! I guess those inside treadmill workouts really helped! So to sum it all up: Miles for the week: 22 Average pace for the week: 10:02 Total miles: 116 or 12% Only 884 left! Week 6 will mark tha 1/2 point for BBG 1.0 round 2! Ready... Go!
