Monday July 23

10am Gold's Gym
Hill Workout on Treadmill

5 X 60 sec. hill repeats (8.0 incline, 7.1 speed)
60 sec. recovery jog at (1.0 incline, 5.8 speed)
cooldown
total time 40 mins.

not a great workout, was suppose to do 6 repeats but was dying after 5. screwed up recovery jog, was suppose to be 2 mins not 60 secs. maybe thats why the workout felt so hard
it was really hot in the gym today which didn't help either.
next time i may try same incline with slower speed and longer recovery

Tempo Workout
Treadmill at home 2pm
10 min. warmup

Tempo was tough to hold for 3 mins. Liked the w/o though. Peanut butter sandwich for lunch seemed to help get me through!
Still need to get the treadmill fixed, the speeds are way off. Next week I'll do tempo at gym to test speed.

7am - ran S.O. course plus back loop with Jackson. Hot and humid. Side cramps early on, maybe dehydrated? Not a great run overall.

Sat July 14

6am run. S.O. course plus up back. approx. 30 mins. Felt great except left foot starting to blister! Perfect cool weather. Love morning runs.
10:15 BodyPump Class - light legs, heavy upper body. Felt weak. Intense w/o though
11:20 Yoga/Pilates Class - new version, awesome. Lots of planks, and core work. Felt great to stretch after all the running this week too

Thurs July 11

11am workout at Gold's. 30 mins on elliptical runner, and 30 mins of random interval biking level 10. Biking after the running was tough. Starving post-w/o, maybe need to increase calories pre-w/o.

July 9

Tired from the long run. Took Jack and Lo in the stroller for a quick run, maybe 20 mins to stretch my legs. Sooo hot! Thought I killed Jackson.

July 8

Sunday July 8
Gold's Gym
3:45pm
Long Run
Ran 70 mins on treadmill. Easy pace. 5.8
Legs sore from lifting yesterday. First half was tough, second easier. Feet blistering after 30 mins, even with different sneakers and orthotics! Decided afternoon is not the best time for me, need to run early in the morning!

My new log

Alright I'm finally ditching the old pen and paper log for this method. I've been keeping track of my workouts since I joined Gold's Gym in Dec. I was always teasing JOhn about his workout logging but I have to agree that it is nice to see your progress and its a bit motivational too. What can I say I'm hooked. My resolution this year was to go to the gym 100 times. If I haven't achieved it yet I'm pretty darn close.
I'm also still considering running the Phoenix marathon the day after my 30th birthday. We'll have to see how my feet hold up for that though. I'm still having issues even after investing in some custom orthothics. I really think the marathon would be a good way to roll into the 30s though. I'm kinda dreading this birthday!
