Happy March. Holy cow where did Jan and Feb go?!
I've been "on leave" having a staycation at home. Ben and I were supposed to take a trip to London or Ireland, but plans kept falling through. And then we planned a trip to some cities in Italy, but I was already in a not so good mood, so those plans fell through too... So we've been staying and relaxing at home.
The silver lining has been the opportunity to continue working out. Because we all know I wouldn't have done any running/working out if we had been anywhere else!
After my 6 miler the other day, I knew I would need to do another run yesterday. Since I've been soo upset about my slowness, I decided that the run would need to be a speed workout. So googling I went. I was terrified by the speeds I would need to complete. There's a great pinterest board I found and started following, hopefully I can do some of these when I get faster. They were truly terrifying to contemplate doing.
That was my reaction to having to actually do one of them...
These were my favorite workouts that I saved to my computer, I thought they were the most doable for me and where I'm at now.
I did the first one on the top left. It felt pretty good and I was surprised, since my 6 miler was mind numbingly slow. During the last mile, the fast walking was killing me, so I had to run the last lap because my feet couldn't take it anymore. Overall, not a bad time.
I'm scare to do the tabata workout. I may have to do the sprints a little slower than 10 because I'm fairly certain I would fly off the treadmill.
Today I did another one of my Nike Training Center workouts. Those mountain climbers and burpees are the worst part of my day...
But then Ben grilled some 98% fat free turkey hot dogs for dinner. Don't worry, I had melted muenster cheese on bread to put it on. Delicioso. This is our go to meal!
In other news. I better start getting serious about my sit ups and push ups since the PRT is only a month away. Crap.
