Actual:
Sun = 10 mi.
- 10 miles was ok. I always struggle and need to take walk breaks, giving me a pace of around 11:00 m/m. I know that I can do better than this.
- I ate oatmeal before hand. no coffee. Reading the book of what to eat before/after the run, trying to cut out the fats during this time.
- It was dark for the first 3 miles, then relatively overcast. I can't blame it on the heat but the humidy was at 100%, it was getting 'harder and harder to breathe' :)
- Second week of chafing under the arms and on the back from the belt. Need to look for long tanks.
- I took water to drink, 1 hammer gel took at mi 5. & fueled on 32 oz of Gatorade after mi 6.5
- Wore thin socks and it helped my purple toe some. I'll be glad when its not so tender.
- Not that sore, thank goodness. Pool therapy afterwards.
- My weight right now is around 142.5.
- bowl of instant kashi oatmeal prerun, .6 oz toast w/ tsp PB & T Apple butter post run.
- 2 mi early a.m. @ 9:48 pace. (10:08 / 9:28)With it only being 2 mi, I probably dont need to put my fuel info on here. I drank water at 1.5, but I just didn't like the sun blaring on my face or the heat so I decided to complete the run tonight.
- Food today: 18%Pro, 68% Carb, 14% Fat (hmm...how'd those carbs get so high??)
- 4.5 more miles in the evening! Awesome @ 9:43!! (10:12 / 9:27 / 9:50 / 9:21 / 9:50 for .5)
Tue = 3.3 mi.
- 1/2 bagel, 1.5 tsp Almond Butter, 1/2 banana, coffee
- Didnt go out in the morning today, needed to get laundry done and jumped at the excuse to stay in.
- 1 hr of yoga followed by a wretched run (a verrrry slow 3.3 mi @ ave 10:52)
- Nutrition today (carbs too high, protein too low...) 19% Pro, 64% Carb, 17% Fat
- Honestly, the body felt fine on the run, but I had to use the bathroom and bring Hannah home, it was late, I'm tired and dont want to go back out by myself.
Wed = 6.0 mi
- 1/2 bagel, 1.5 tsp Almond Butter, 1/2 banana, coffee
- Didnt go out in the morning today, need to remember that today is take-boy-to-school-day.
- Nutrition for today was spot on! 1682 Cals. 22% Pro, 54% Carb, 24% Fat
- 6 mile run was GREAT, stopped midway to switch kids and go to bathroom, picked right back up and was going to finish, ran into neighbors, chatted, picked back up, finished 1.5 mile. Felt good outside, I like this weather - 82 when heading out, but low humidity - YAY!! :o)
- Drank TL2G, Energy rush (16oz) during the 6 miles. I'll probably be up all night, but it was tastey and made me feel good.
Thu = off day
- So proud of myself for getting on the home elliptical for 40 easy minutes this morning! Yay me! (on my OFF day!)
- 1 hr yoga - NICE, love this day! :)
- 1532 cals: 18% pro, 61% carb, 21% fat --- hmmm, need to watch those high carbs :(
- wt today: 138.6
Fri = 2.25 mi
- Got out for 2 this morning. The .25 is just the walk home. Had a funny/weird pain on the side of my leg by my knee. Mental? maybe...but I wasn't going to chance it the day before 12 miles.
- Over-age (2022 cals) but had my nutrition around the right balance: 19% pro, 53% Carb, 28% fat
- Feeling ... tired. Gotta go to bed soon, but lovin my new laptop, trying to get it set up with my spreadsheet and garmin software :)
Sat = 12.2
- Up at 5:10, Clif Bar & half cup coffee. Some water (3oz? 6? not sure)
- headed out in the dark around 6:20am. Felt NICE! Jeanine not feeling well, I was so thankful to be the one with energy today! We walked a little ways in the middle (maybe mi 6 & 8?).... I ran ahead at mi 11 with plenty of energy left for a slower pace.
- Post run (around an hr later) toast w/ almond butter & apple butter. Then eggplant parm sandwich & a few nuts.
- No ST, but a great week with Yoga & Running :)
