I think I am going to stop and buy a new yoga video or something to motivate me to cross train more. Ugh or I can get a strength training video, I hate strength training, such a lazy runner 
What do you do to cross train? Any tips for a lazy cross trainer?
I am so bad about cross training except for yoga. I do have a Groupon or Living Social for boot camp. Does snowboarding count as cross training?
Great job! Man you have twice as much mileage as me and my marathon is a month before yours… crap!
I am the opposite of you, I have the cross training down pat, it’s that running thing that is lacking on my end haha.
Keep up the great work! Looks like a great year ahead of you
I guess it is a good thing that I have the running part down, then we would really have some problems
Check out the options on your cable network. I know mine has hundreds of free work outs under the “on demand”. Only draw back is that they only last for a month, but that just means new work outs every month! Good luck!
Oooo good tip! I will definitely be checking this out!
For yoga I always keep an ear out for the discount classes or free workshops. I also have a few yoga DVDs. You can check the library for some or try YogaDownload.com.
You have a gym membership right? Can you take classes there? Like spin?
Another idea is to do abs, planks, body-resitance type exercises at home while watching TV.
I guess I do a little cross training, I do conditioning a couple days a week (situps push ups etc). Trying to make it to classes at my gym, but that whole work thing gets in the way
Great week of training Jess!! Forget Yoga and get a bike!
Isn’t it funny how speed work actually works? Lol. I’m finally starting to see some improvement, too – who woulda thought? Lol.
Great training week, Jess!
GOODNESS GRACIOUS– THOSE MILE REPEATS! nice work lady! 3:30 here you come!!!
