Disney 2010 - Training Week 1



This seems to be a list of failed attempts at something. I never keep up with a journal for long, life gets in the way, I get busy, forget about it... well, this time I can't quit the training - I have to follow through with the race, so hopefully I will follow through on the journaling.
Sept 6: Planned:
Week# Sun. Mon. Tue. Wed. Thur Fri Sat. Total
1Rest686Yoga410/yoga34/2yoga/0ST

Actual:

Sun = 7 mi.
  • 7 miles was a slightly hilly run on the top of Simms Mtn WV. (see photo above).
  • I had eaten a banana & jiff pb on a slice of multigrain pre-run with coffee.
  • It was a little cool (70ish). I wore my yoga pants and tech tshirt. No chaffing.
  • I took water to drink, no extra gels - thank goodness the first half was mostly up.
  • New glide sneakers proved to be a problem for my poor long middle toe, will wear less sock with them.
  • Quads felt the burn on the last mile straight downhill...what a treat! :)
Mon = Rest
  • Fam. Reunion, 4 wheeler riding...No exercise, but fun activities going on - not sitting at a desk!
Tue = Rest
  • Drove over 13 hrs, not fun, no activity at all. Drank some water, not flooded, didn't want to stop for the bathroom.
Wed = 3 mi
  • 3 mi. (should have been six.. no excuse) @ appx 10mm pace. Not too bad, but an evening run should have been better. Came in for a pit stop (bathroom) and it was late, everyone was hungry, etc... I didn't go back out. I suck.
  • Nutritional breakdown: 1772 cals, 22% fat, 52% carb, 26% protein
Thu = 1 hr yoga
  • Morning run was a wash, I had a headache and the Pulte lady was coming back to check the counters and the plumber and electrician came out. busy morning, took a nap, felt good after that.
  • 1 hr yoga. NICE, Joy was teaching.
  • Nutritional breakdown for the day: 1491 cals, 23% fat, 58% carb, 19% protein
Fri = 4 mi (am)
  • Morning run was a great 4 miles. Tough - but I pulled in some vibes from my favorite running friends and they got me through :)
  • Afternoon feeling sluggish. I need more sleep, 8 hrs isn't enough. calories ended up really low...did I forget to log something? Um, maybe I waited to late to eat? Running plans got changed around for this weekend, but we'll get'em on Sunday!
  • Nutritional breakdown for the day: 1157 cals, 20% fat, 59% carb, 21% protein

Saturday

  • No run today. Had planned to go to yoga, but didn't.
  • Breakfast out...and snack... Hanging out with the family doesn't happen often enough
  • Nutritional breakdown for the day: 1518 cals,35% fat, 49% carb, 17% protein
  • See tomorrow on next week for this week's long run.
