8th – 0.07miles @ 6:56

0.44mile cool down @ 9:09

Total – 6.33miles in 59:27.

Wed, Feb 8thAM walk with G and Molly – 2.0miles. PT that night for almost 2 hrs! I don’t have another appointment until the end of the night, so my therapist showed me a bunch of exercises to work on until my next appointment. I am definitely going to keep up with all the work we have been doing to build my core. I hate being in pain!

Thurs, Feb 9thPlanned run day, but then G got up with me and said he was going to take Molly for a walk. He hardly even volunteers to go for a walk, so I decided to skip the run and walk with them. We did do 2.0miles and after I did a ton of back exercises/stretching and abs.

On another note – we had a great date night at Seasons 52. I love spending time with G!

Fri, Feb 10thPlanned off/rest day, but I decided I didn’t really have anything to rest from, so I did Nike Training Club – Get Strong, Heartbreaker, advanced level 30min and then more back stuff! I am happy that I found this app. It does have one problem, they should build in ~10sec rest time, so you can transition to the next exercise and equipment without feeling guilty that you are missing part of the workout.

Workout –

2min light jog

2min straight leg kicks

1min back pedal

1min recover

3 x { 30sec shoulder press

30sec push ups with feet on medicine ball – just did them on my knees

30sec deadlift

1min recover}
2min standing hamstring stretch

2min lying quad stretch

Sat, Feb 11thI got home late Friday night after meeting Baby Hagen, so I didn’t get to bed until after midnight and the next morning I needed to be done with my run by 10am, which meant I needed to start by 7:30, which equals a 6:30am wake-up! I decided to push the run to Sunday. So instead, I did Nike Training Club – Get Lean – Adrenaline Hit, advanced level, 45min and more back stuff after.

1min lower back stretch

2min standing hamstring stretch

2min pretzel stretch

Sun, Feb 12thRun day! I am doing a 25k race in April. It is actually 5 x 5k! My training plan had a 10miler scheduled for today, so I decided to do 3 x 5k with an ~10min break in between each 5k. Looking at the race information, I should get about 20min between each 5k, so my runs today seem like a great idea.

Splits –

1st – 8:52, 8:38, 8:35, 0.1miles @ 8:22 – 26:57

2nd – 8:38, 8:32, 8:29, 0.1miles @ 8:07 – 26:29

3rd – 8:38, 8:28: 8:20, 0.1miles @ 8:39 – 26:20

I am happy with this and felt good. I did take Molly on a 0.5mile cool down walk.

On another note it was 20deg when I started and 25 when I was finished! Tonight, back exercises/stretching!


Enjoy!

  1. As it is possible to tell, this can be a particularly wide-ranging abdominal exercise routine in addition to becoming created for people who would love to have great ab muscles. I certainly think these are the ideal belly workouts and that this can be the best ab workout for women and men.
