I thought about what my goals will be for my second month and decided to keep it simple.
Goals:
1) Stick with the program I have laid out for myself.
-Monday; strength train (Do whatever looks "fun" to stave off boredome)
-Tuesday; run
-Wednesday; yoga (run if possible)
-Thursday; run (I think strength training gets added here as well at some point this month)
-Friday; REST
-Saturday; cross train (ZUMBA!!!)
-Sunday; long run
2) Stay injury free.
3) Breath and relax as much as possible.
Training update:
Friday was rest day. I rested! Done! That was easy.
Saturday was cross train day so of course I shook my bod at Zumba! Soooo much fun and felt great. During the "arm" song I went to get weights and there were only 2 lbs. I used to think just no weight was pretty hard, but have been using 1 lb weights. I didn't want to go to the weight closet and come back empty-handed so I used the 2 lb weights. I really did struggle, but I did it! Thank you Natalie for giving me the following quote (that has been motivating/haunting me since you sent it),
"if it doesn't challenge you, it won't change you".
Thanks buddy!
Today was long run day. I only had to complete one mile, but it was the first time without walking. From here on out it is only jogging. If I have to walk, I am supposed to keep it under a minute at a time and jog as much as possible. I think that is more for the longer days. The jog today was pretty challenging because I took the hilly country road and not the flat highway that I used last week. I also continued to walk comfortably after the jog for grand total of 3 miles. Tom pushed the boys while I jogged and then I took them when I was done my mile and then we walked together and enjoyed the sunny morning.
Hope you all had great weekends. Thanks for reading and have a great week!
