The beginning of this week I was so proud that I was sticking so close to my training plan, didn’t wimp out on my speedwork or anything. Then I got swamped at work and stuck in traffic and before I knew it I was taking a rest day because I was so busy. But that is going to happen and you can only plan around so much.
I did surprisingly stick to my goals. Ran 1 run outside (it is cold, don’t be a hater), cross trained and did speedwork and a long run. That is still a win in my book.
Sunday: 7 miles

What do you when you have to miss a workout? Make it up on another rest day? Just take the rest day and move on with your schedule? Squeeze it in no matter what?
Nice Week! You beat me by 9 miles. I can imagine how how great it will feel to be back at 37+ in a few weeks.
Great first week!
As of lately, if I take a rest day I just leave it at that. I tell myself my body needs it. And then I grab a glass of wine.
i am a masochist. if i miss a workout (unless it was due to death illness) i usually double up a workout day. i’ve found that 2 a days speed me along although i can’t keep those up for more than a couple weeks.
Week one for the win!
hey that’s me!!
now if i could only get my HALF marathon training kicked into gear!
