Happy Monday everyone!
Welcome to another edition of the Monday report. This week was pretty low-key given that the Cherry Blossom 10-miler was yesterday.
I managed to break in the new Brooks' enough to wear them on race day, but, as usual, I'm going to write about the race in it's own post. I will say that Mother Nature and I are not on speaking terms right now. It's freaking April. Let's act like it.
I finished up March's training, with a fair amount of my training accomplished. I am finding that I am excellent at making excuses on speedwork days. I think next training plan, I'll leave off the speedwork.
THE RUNDOWN
Tuesday - Spin was awesome. I didn't push as hard as I maybe could've, but I really focused on form and my breathing. I did notice some ankle pain on the outside of my left ankle, just below the ankle bone. I'm thinking I tweaked my peroneal tendon. I don't know how, but ice and a couple of days of taping it seemed to help.
Thursday - Ran with my Big Guy on a new-to-him route. I took him up some biggish hills, and he was not a fan. He did run an entire mile without stopping though, and that's a huge thing. He hasn't done that before!
Sunday - Cherry Blossom!!! I was excited to be running DC again, and I'm just going to reiterate that I am displeased with Mother Nature. Nothing like 50 mph gusts while running along the Potomac to make the race more interesting.
WEEKLY GOALS
- More consistent sleep schedule. Spring break really messed with my schedule. Going to bed too late, waking up too late - being rushed in the morning really messes up my day.
- Keep pushing the workouts. Gotta get prepped for Nashville.
- Stick to the diet better. Snacking is not my friend. Seriously. Stop snacking. Especially the late night snacking.
Well there's the write up. I hope you guys had a great weekend, and have a fantabulous week!
