Week 6 Day 6, 12 miler rescheduled!

I had to reschedule my 12 mile run from this morning to tomorrow morning. They were calling for storms with thunder and lightening. Of course, I could not go without exercising so I headed to the gym. I biked 45 minutes/16 miles, lifted for shoulders and abs.

Tomorrow I will head over to Grosse Ile to run my 12 miles. I am hoping that I feel great after the run, because I would like to get some more strength training in before I leave for vacation on Tuesday. Monday I plan on running and will not have time to spend in the gym.

Rescheduling this run has thrown my next two days off track. Oh well, it is what it is!

Day 6 & 7 - Week 4

Saturday was day 6 and was supposed to be a 10 mile run. It was stroming Saturday morning so I began cleaning house and ended up not finishing until 11:30am. So I went to the gym with the hubby and spent 35 minutes on the elliptical doing intervals and strength trained my back and abs.

Sunday I woke up early and headed out for my 10 miler. I felt great through out the entire run. I could have kept going, but since I already added on an additional mile (Hal had me running 9 miles) I decided not to.

I have found that I feel so much better running in the morning versus the evening. I wish I could make myself wake up early during the week and head out for my runs before work. I really want to give it a shot, but I also enjoy my sleep. I'm torn. I am going to try to set my alarm to run one morning this week. Wish me luck.
