It has been a long week. Sun-Tues, I was on travel for work, and managed to get my 40 hour work week in by around noon on Wednesday. Sadly, that didn’t mean that I was done for the week, but my brain most definitely was done by last night. So here’s last week’s workout recap.
Monday – Rest day. At least I got this right.
Tuesday – Morning swim. I always hate going to the pool in the mornings, but I’m always glad I’ve done it.
Wednesday – Scheduled 4 mile run, got through two miles and was so sluggish, I opted to stop.
Thursday – Missed swim. I was exhausted and there were storms brewing, so I opted to just go to bed early.
Friday – Now to try to make up all the missed workouts. I was scheduled for a 4 mile run, but opted to do Sunday’s 8 instead, knowing that I was headed to the airport Sunday and this gave me the option to sleep in.
Saturday – 2:20 bike ride. Got this one done. Pushed pretty hard, and I was proud of myself for that. I need to keep pushing these long rides, because I need to get my average pace up and working on it is the only way it’s going to happen. That night, I ran the Suds & Soles 5K, so I’m counting that as making up Friday’s 4 miler.
Sunday – Does running through an airport count?
So it wasn’t a perfect week training wise, but it wasn’t too bad. I did what I could to get in my workouts while still listening to my body and not pushing where I shouldn’t. The coming week won’t be excellent either, but I’m going to do what I can. It’s almost race weekend after all!
Listening to your body is the most important! Taking it easier before the race should have your body thanking you come race day. Have an awesome race!!
