Rocked It!

After taking an easy week after the marathon I made a new plan and decided to get focused on working out other parts of my body plus working on my running. My week went like this:

Sunday: 5 miles 43:49 8:45 pace and 30 minutes of Yoga

Monday: 5K speed work 23:32 7:35 pace and P90X Abs for 30 minutes

Tuesday: 3 mile walk and 30 minutes of Yoga

Wednesday: 5 mile run 44:48 8:57 pace 30 minute arm work and ab work

Thursday: 30 minutes Plyometric, 20 minute bike and 200 crunches

Friday: OFF

Saturday: 15 miles @ 9:14 pace! 2 hrs and 18 minutes

All in all it was a great week! The plyometrics kicked my butt. I was not that sore right away but by Friday night I was feeling it. I was worried about my long run on Saturday but it did not interfere at all. I don't think I will be doing a lot of the plyometrics because it is messing with my foot that still has a little tender spot from the marathon.

The best part of this week is my abs were sore! I hate ab work with a passion but want to wear a bikini when we go to the beach in June. I go through phases wanting to work on my abs but I never see or feel results. This week was great because the soreness makes me want to do the ab work I did this week plus some.

Next week is Spring Break so I should be able to get in plenty of run plus arms/abs. Plus lots of Yoga and stretching : ) Plyometrics is going to collect some dust next week.
