Monday 7/19
30 minutes yoga
L: Really wasn't in the mood to do anything, and today was a rest day anyway, but still did 30 minutes of yoga at the gym at lunch. My normal gym leggings aren't really cutting it anymore - they felt so tight and kept rolling down. Time for new ones I guess.
Tuesday 7/20
3.4 treadmill miles @ 12:06 + 10 minutes stretching
(20 minute intervals run w/ Jess King + 20 min recovery run w/ Selena Samuela)
L: This was such a great run! Like the kind of run I honestly wasn't sure I would ever have again (dramatic, maybe, but after 3 months of it absolutely sucking, it's true). I stacked two 20-minute Peloton runs and absolutely loved both of them. The playlists on both were great, the intervals on the first one were great, and the steady run on the second one was great. I did a little walking at the beginning of the first class and then in between the two classes, but other than that I ran the whole time (16 minutes straight and then 19 minutes straight). I ended up running without stopping way longer than I have in a while (I feel like I keep saying that, but it keeps being true), which really boosted my confidence.
Wednesday 7/21
Rest
Thursday 7/22
3.1 treadmill miles @ 11:41
(30 minute intervals run w/ Selena Samuela
L: This run felt a little harder and not as good as Tuesday's - it was a little hotter in the gym, and I think I was still tired from Tuesday's run. One thing I'm noticing is how much longer it takes to recover these days! I also don't think I particularly love Selena as an instructor, but I did like the playlist for this one a lot. I did push myself a little bit today, and maybe I shouldn't have, but after the short warmup I ended up running 3 straight miles without stopping! I don't plan to make that a habit (trying to figure out the right run:walk ratio), but I just needed to know I still could!
Friday 7/23
Rest
Saturday 7/24
30 minute 90s rock ride + 5 minute CD ride w/ Emma Lovewell
Sunday 7/25
4.3 mile long run @ 12:47
(30 minute AFO Walk+Run: Gwen Stefani w/ Matty Maggiacomo + 20 minute Punk Rock Run w/ Chase Tucker)
This was my first "long run" of this training cycle! I really shouldn't use the quotes, because it had been a couple months since I've run this far, so it was a true long run for me right now. I stacked two Peloton runs and really liked the first one, but the second one didn't really do it for me. The first one had longer run intervals (2-4 minutes, I think) but the second one had more, shorter run intervals with super short walk/recovery periods. I never really felt like I could settle in on the second one because the pace was constantly changing. My heart rate got a little higher than I would have liked but overall I thought this went okay for my first long run in a while!
