Off to a good start!

I got in a bunch of good workouts this weekend, so I feel like I'm off to a good start on my training! 

Friday: Pure Barre

Saturday: Love Em or Leave Em 5K--> missed my November 5K time by 7 seconds

Sunday: Pure Barre 

You'll wind up seeing the words Pure Barre or PB in my blog a lot...I'm kind of addicted to it! I started doing it in October because my physical therapist (bad knee injury) told me that my abs needed to get stronger and that I needed to figure out how to engage my glutes/ abs/ hamstrings more effectively. Currently, I'm doing a 50 classes in 60 days challenge. I have until middle of March to get them all in....I'm now at class # 17!

 I'm now about 4 minutes off my 5K times from before getting hurt...I should definitely continue getting closer to that as I run more and more :)

The training schedule ahead for this week:


Monday 2/13: PB (check!- # 17)

Tuesday 2/14: PB and a 50 minute run

Wednesday 2/15:  PB and a 10 mile bike ride

Thursday 2/16: Outdoor soccer and 50 minute run

Friday 2/17:  PB

Saturday 2/18: 80 min run, PB, and 10 mile bike ride

Sunday 2/19: PB and 20 mile bike ride

My main concern is getting in the long run and the bike ride on Saturday...I'll have to experiment with timing. It does definitely make me a little nervous, but I know I'll get them in somehow.

  1. Sounds like you have a great plan for the week. Wow, your Saturday is busy! Maybe run, bike and then PB? I usually do cardio before lifting, so I really lose motivation to run/bike AFTER strength training.

    Glad you seem to be healing well...keep taking care of that body. You have big plans this year!
