Wednesday Workouts...
Hey Guys,
I hope you all are well. I am still feeling a little under the weather but made it to the gym this morning and swam 1600 meters (1 Mile) 28:09. I am planning on doing a long run this evening. It will be my last in preparation for my marathon next week, and then taper for the next 10 days. I am going to run between 20-22 miles tonight, although my flexors are still a little tender from Saturdays 20 miler. Anyways, hope you all are well and am anxious to hear what everyone did today to continue to, as Sherry put it, "Really Change" your lifestyle.
Continued...Here's how the long run in the cooooooold weather and 15-20 mph winds went, needless to say I cut it a bit short:

Aah, you beat me by 6 minutes.
Anyway, I did 18 miles today and my goal was 12 minute pace. I nailed it to the second without altering my pace. I had more at the end. That puts me on PR pace by about 8 minutes. Factor in a half the day before and the fact that Disney will most likely be hot and sticky - again and I am shooting for another :just finish". There is another marathon in Vermont three weeks later that I am contemplating for PR purposes.

Well no marathon here, at least for now.
I've hit a bit of a stall in the weightloss so I tried to mix it up this morning. Instead of my regular 1 hour on the elliptical; this morning I started with 10 mins on the stair climber. 30 mins on the elliptical and then 15 mins on the treadmill. Keeping fingers crossed I see some downward movement!

I did a three mile run today. Thankfully there is a gym where I work, I took at break at 5:30 and got my workout in. I'm just leaving for now (it's 8:00 here) - there is no way I would have felt like working out now.

What is this tracking tool that you are using? Looks interesting.
Today was the "muscle works" class at work. 45 minutes of weights and abs. The I did the Qi Gong class, which was awesome (another 40 minutes).

Started my run a little later than I wanted (in the dark) and the weather was about 37 and misty/raining, in addition I'm at my folks as I have my pre-admission testing so haven't marked any of the miles. When I started out I thought, man this is gonna suck, well about a 1/2 mile into the run I knew it wasn't gonna suck but actually be a great run. I ended up doing a little over 5 miles and felt great the whole way through. Wore different shoes and have decided that my Asics just aren't for me. All in all it was an absolutely great run in weather only other runners/exercise nuts can appreciate as being great!
