Phase: Marathon
Workout: 65 to 75 minute Easy Run
Purpose: Build Endurance
Felt tired today. Actually I was half thinking of taking a very rare rest day today, but decided to head out the door and see how things developed. Funny thing is I had a great run.
My pace in the first couple of miles wasn’t great, but I soon found a nice rhythm and starting ticking off the miles at a fair clip. Ended up running for just over 75 minutes and covered 10.5 miles.
My legs feel heavy and fatigued (probably from yesterday’s hill workout), but hopefully 15 minutes with The Stick will work a minor miracle and I’ll be good to go again tomorrow.
I also did another day of the Essential Abs program; Day 2 of Week 2 which comprised the following exercises:
Workout #1 (Monday) – 16 reps of each exercise
Workout #2 (Wednesday) – 17 reps of each exercise
Workout #3 (Friday) – 18 reps of each exercise
Been trying to stay off the beer during the week, but tonight I feel like I’ve “earned one”. Cheers!
