OK, I’m liking this mashup thing so I’ll do one post a week to my midweek training activities, and then another for my weekend training… until my schedule clears up a bit, anyway and I’ll have time to post here as often as I have in the past. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Monday (August 16th)<\/strong>
\nIt was a rest day but I ended up running 3 miles with my sis @ our usual Beach route. It wasn’t a bad (barefoot) run, either — no recurrence of my right arch pain but there were some muscle creaks and niggles elsewhere that I didn’t expect.<\/p>\n

Tuesday (August 17th)<\/strong>
\nJust as a precaution, I decided to skip the run and do a lap swim. Though I was only able to do one drill, I feel like I’m getting stronger swimming 100m with hardly any rest between laps. Workout was: 100m warm up, 5 x 50m drill, 100m kickboard, 100m cool down<\/p>\n

Wednesday (August 18th)<\/strong>
\nUgh. Another skipped workout day.<\/p>\n

Thursday (August 19th)<\/strong>
\nThis was the day I downloaded that cool app, MyFitnessPal and due to work, I ended up doing indoor cardio (spinning) for 35 minutes. It was a good one, too as I began sweating profusely five minutes into the workout (and until the end!)<\/p>\n

Friday (August 20th)<\/strong>
\nCombined cardio and strength training by spinning for 15 minutes and then doing the P90x Back and Biceps routine for 23 minutes. I only did that much because my arms began to feel like jelly! In hindsight, I’m glad I only did that much because as I did my long run training today, my arms were so sore!<\/p>\n

Anyway, despite the fact that I’m weeks behind my marathon (and triathlon) training, I think I’m progressing as far as building my fitness back up — it’s not a great improvement, but it’s better than my previous training regimen from three years ago (i.e., non-existent!) \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
