tsk, tsk

Well I managed 1.5 slow and easy on the treadmill before my workout. Lots of stretching before and after.

Woodchops (7.5 lb ball) 15x4
Single leg squats 10,10x4
Unilateral hip lifts (bosu) 15, 15x4
Pushups on inverted bosu 15x4

Aaron yelled at me today when I told him I had a poptart before both my weekend runs. THEY WERE GOOD RUNS!!! Apparently, my nutrition is not up to snuff anymore and he's disappointed. I just don't have time to make oatmeal when I'm trying to get out the door before it's 90 degrees! I promise I'll be better once cooler temps are here to stay. Last night's run was nice though. I could probably switch my Tuesday run to Monday night and my Thursday morning run to Thursday evening. I don't think I have any kid conflicts with those evenings.

I'm changing the schedule a little this week because of the Half I'm doing next week. Instead of 19 on Sunday, I'm going to go ahead and make it 20 -- hey what's one mile between friends? I just feel like completing three 20s is an integral part of the program, mentally, that I don't want to miss one. 19 is so close to 20 anyway. I was kind of feeling that it was taking forever to get to that part of the program. Then, next week I'll probably taper a little bit, and cut back Saturday's run significantly. I don't see much point in doing this race if I'm not going to give it what I've got.

Ah ha, further proof that all this nutrition stuff is just bunk, the body wants what it wants. :) I used to convince myself that orange slices during a run made me faster...it could have been true...
