I felt like this was a strong training week and I felt good on ALL my runs:) I also finished the week with a 6K on Sunday (but I didn’t include it since I track my weeks Sunday- Saturday).
The plan for this week is easy runs on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday, with some tempo work on Tuesday and a rest day on Friday. And at least one yoga class- I really feel like they are helping my flexibility and mobility.
How were your workouts last week?
Do you typically do the same workouts each week or change it up?
I had my best week of running in a loonnng time this past week– a 9 and 10 miler, with a 6 thrown in there too. Let’s hope I can keep it up! Great week, and here’s to another!
Great job! Doesn’t it feel good to have an awesome running week!? And yes hopefully this week will be another great one:)
Looks like a great week…I may have to copy that thurs workout at some point! I have been getting used to more speed and hill training and making my easy runs easier and I feel good. I like being able to mix it up between marathons.
I’ve found that when I’m doing a few harder runs each week my easy runs need to be easy. My legs just don’t want to move fast the day after a tough run:)
Love that you felt strong on every run – congrats!!
Thanks Megan!
So I thought I knew just about every race in this area and now you turn me onto a new one! What a fun distance, though. Looks like you had a great week of running!
It’s only the second year it was held (and last year it was an 8k) so I don’t think many people knew about it. I actually got a brochure in the mail and that was how I found out. It was fun and for a good cause, so hopefully more people will hear about it and sign up!
Very solid week! I was getting pretty stagnant with mine and one goal I made for myself post-marathon was to start mixing it up a little. So like today I would usually cross train (and I did), but I ran the mile to the gym and then biked, did some arms, and then ran back. It was really fun! I’ve just been starting to add my mileage back in, but somehow I managed to run 20 miles last week which was more than I originally thought I’d do.
Glad you had a great week of workouts! I had a pretty good one. The only down side was some intense humidity! I have been going to yoga regularly now and think I have gotten a strength training routine down finally!
That sounds great! Its nice to get into a routine of running/strength/yoga.
Ugh humidity is the worst! Its starting to get humid here, too.
Looks like a great week! I had a great week last week with my workouts, but this week hasn’t quite started the same, so I am giving myself a kick up the butt to get motivated.
You still have plenty of time to get some good workouts in this week! And great job getting in some good workouts last week!
