Piggyback?

July 2nd, 2010 | 3 Comments

Hope you had a fantastic Friday. I am so excited that it is finally the weekend….and a 3 day weekend to boot. Happy Dance! Do you have big plans for the 4th of July weekend? I plan on just catching up on some homework from an online course that I am taking, enjoying a little relaxation and of course getting in a couple of runs. Yesterday was a scheduled non run day, so I decided to workout with an Incredible Ab workout with Cindy Whitmarsh on Exercise TV. Love it! This morning was another 4 mile run at a scheduled 10:04/min per mile. I am currently following the 4 Hour or Bust training schedule from last month’s Runner’s World, but I do have a hard time sticking to the times they want you to start … Read entire article »

Down time

June 5th, 2010 | 2 Comments

It’s the weekend again! Now that Phase 1 of my 2010 Goal is completed I am trying to design a fitness plan for the next couple of months. Of course I will continue to run 4-5 days per week, but each run will be no longer than 5-7 miles per run. I really want to take this down time to work my arms, core and legs. Basically the whole body, huh? I meet with my health coach again on Monday which will be a perfect opportunity to discuss workouts and nutrition for the next couple of months until Phase 2 begins. This morning I went out for just my 2nd run since last weeks marathon and made it back before the wicked thunderstorm that passed through which of course sent baby Noah into a state of panic. I … Read entire article »

Bye bye rain clouds

Happy Hump Day! The rain has finally stopped. There is so much flooding and I am so grateful that we made it through with just a little water in the basement. My heart goes out to those with more damage. I took those 2 days of heavy rains to rest up a bit and work my core with my favorite TV trainer, Cindy Whitmarsh. This morning I put in a short 30 minute run with my first speed workout scheduled for Friday. Yikes, I am a little nervous about it. Breakfast: Oat bran and burglar wheat cereal with dates, chia seeds and flax seed meal. Surprisingly yummy and oh so filling. Of course, a Green Monster Smoothie to round the meal off. My favorite mug, The Flying Pig Marathon 2009 Packing my cooler of … Read entire article »

New Discoveries

Tuesday morning was my first run after the half marathon on Tuesday and my quads were still screaming at me a bit. Later on in the afternoon I noticed the muscles finally were more relaxed. Wahoo! Wednesday I worked the abs again with an Exercise TV workout with trainer Cindy Whitmarsh. She has an Incredible Abs series that consists of 3 different 20 minutes workouts combining a little cardio with lots of abs. I’ve been through the series once and have every intention to keep at it. I have deemed them worthy. Today my alarm went off at 4:40am, which I quickly turned off and immediately fell back asleep. Yikes! I woke with at start just before 5am an jumped out of bed rushing to get dressed and out the door for … Read entire article »
