** (a note on this schedule. It had a 10k built into Sunday but I opted out and settled on a long run for the weekend instead. That is why there is a rest day scheduled for Saturday also.)
This week has been a great one for my workouts. Having The Husband home really helps motivate me because he continuously reminds me what I am working toward and where I want to be in the near future. It really helps. Now, I have him attempting to motivate me to get my school work done on time!
Monday: I went to Zumba for cross training for the first time in a year. They now do something called HIIT fit after the hour of Zumba and it lasts a half hour. So we did Tabata intervals of various things including squats with a kettle bell, leg climbers, pushups, oblique crunches, and lots of other ab work. I was fairly sore the next day from HIIT Fit.
Tuesday: I was able to get up first thing in the morning to get in my 4.5 mile run! I usually have to run late at night after the kids go to bed but since The Husband is home, I was able to do it before breakfast. I actually ended up doing 4.75 that morning because I got into a zone and forgot when I was supposed to stop.
Wednesday: The Husband and I went on a bike ride. It was a lot of fun and it had been awhile but I always forget how much of a workout riding a bike can be!
Thursday- The kiddos went to my Grandma's to play and The Husband and I went for a 4.5 mile run through town. I hadn't run this route in a few weeks and I was happy to get in one of my short runs outside.
Friday: Was rest day =)
Saturday: The kids had soccer games this morning. My mom and I, along with my Little Girly went to a big outdoor outlet mall right afterwards to get the kids some summer clothes. It wasn't at the pace I would normally walk for cross training but I was only scheduled for 50 minutes and probably got in over 2 hours.
Sunday: Again, The Husband and I took off together for a run. I had 10 miles to do and we finally hit the point that we had to travel about 45 minutes in order to safely run it. I had a VERY slow pace that I settled into but I really felt like I could go forever at that pace. I stopped 3 very quick times and 2 of those were because I had to pee! I hydrated a bit too well apparently! I am going to have to watch that because I don't want to be stopping in the middle of my half!
I am very happy with this week and I am really excited for next week.
Happy Running!
