So here’s last week’s plan in brief and how I did:
Monday – rest – no problems here
Tuesday – easy run – on treadmill after soccer
Wednesday – tempo run in the morning. I went a little fast I think but over all pretty good. Lots of lengths at swimming which was great.
Thursday – easy run; skipped it thanks to heavy legs so went to the local pool with Q instead
Friday – rest – yippie! another completely successful day 😉
Saturday – oh my goodness. I went to that class at energia athletics. It’s called “iron core.” It’s like an ab-intensive yoga-kinda class. I thought I was gonna puke for large portions of it. Once I got home and ate a little and had a shower I signed up for next Saturday 🙂
Sunday – Intervals – woohoo I really think I had a great first session of my 800m intervals. I did them a little fast so I’ll have to watch that in order to be able to hold the speed for a kilometre intervals that I’m supposed to do this week!
Monday – this should really be in the week 2 list but I moved the week 1 long run to today because it’s a holiday. I’m waiting out the humidity and thunderstorm watch that we’re currently under.
Edited to add: managed 10km in 26c + 80% humidity plus another kilometre as a cool down so that’s: 30km on the week (plus a day)
Total kms on the week: 19km and hopefully 10-13 more for my long run today.
And here’s the week 2 plan:
Tuesday – tempo run in the morning. No soccer today because my dad and I are going to the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup. Finland plays Korea at 5 pm and Canada plays Ghana at 8 pm. Wheeee
Wednesday – short easy run in the morning and swim class in the evening
Thursday – short easy run – just getting time on my feet
Friday – 1km intervals – I’m a little nervous!
Saturday – that iron core ab class again
Sunday – short easy run
