Kentucky Derby Marathon Training

TODAY IS THE OFFICIAL START OF KENTUCKY DERBY MARATHON TRAINING.

3 Miles on the treadmill. I mixed it up by playing with the grade and doing some strides the last mile. It was the treadmill in the dungeon so I have to entertain myself while I look at the plain white wall.

Then it was upstairs for the weights. Today looked something like this:

Squats into curls w/ 10 lb dbs
Seated row (20 x 4) SS Step-up squats on the riser (20x4)
Chest press w/ 10lb dbs SS Wall sits (1:00) X 4
Ball hamstring curls (20) SS Pushups (15) X 3
Seated calf raises (50,50,50,55) X 20Pushup rows (10,10) X4

I haven't yet decided whether I'll do Hal's Adv. I or Pfitz 55/18. I'll try Pfitz this week and see how it goes. It looks like it's fewer running days (a good thing), but the runs are longer.
