Week 12- Pig Training Run Down

Stats

Monday- 4 mile recovery run
Tuesday- 20 minute bike, yard work (mowed the lawn, weeded, moved some bricks)
Wednesday- ~8.25 mile run with treadmill hill repeats, quick weights and lunges
Thursday- Yoga 75 minutes
Friday- Rest
Saturday- Spring Classic 1:40:59 plus 30 minute warm up run
Sunday- 12 miles in the snow easy

Not a bad week mileage wise. Not what FIRST had on tap but I will take it. Some times you just have to go with the flow. This week was all screwed up by the car problems and weather but I managed to salvage my training regardless and got in a pretty damn good race to boot.

Now lets hope this snow melts before Tuesdays track workout!

Happy Easter!

Glad you made it through the week safely. Those pics of the snow are pretty cool. However, I am glad there is none around here.

We don't have snow, but the swing in weather has affected everyone. Let's all hope for some warmer weather. Another great week for you. Cute pics, especially the big beastie!

Sometimes for sanity sake, we really need to have those week's which we just go with the flow!

Love the pic of David heading up the stairs!

I identified with hitting autopilot and found the only way out was to train some 6 milers at race pace or quicker.

A solid training week and all looks good for the Pig. There's plenty in the bank now which is a huge effort with all that snow around.

Hope the track is clear for you tonight. The snow was pretty much gone in Willoughby, so maybe it will be in Solon too.

I think the snow landed here now in Chi-town. Where is spring again?

great training and race week, you sometimes do have to just go with it..

You're doing FIRST? I was going to but then had to scratch most speedwork because of a pulled muscle. I'd love to know if you think it works!

Doing a great job. Keep it up and before you know it it'll be taper time.

'some times you just have to go with the flow' - so true. Great half time!
