Don’t forget to check out Meghann’s bake sale, which starts at 11 AM today! AND Happy Birthday to VeggieGirl. 🙂
In other news…. it is obviously Monday. Ick. I like my job and everything, but let’s just say I like the weekends more. In fact, I’m really, really good at weekends. If weekending was my full-time job, I’m sure I’d be a manager or even the CEO by now. 🙂
I consoled myself with a bowl of basic oatmeal.
My oatmeal contained:
- 1/2 cup oatmeal
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 sliced banana
- Toppings: brown sugar, a bunch of chopped almonds and pecans
Crooms 15 Mile Trail Run
At least I have something fun to look forward to all week – the Crooms 15 Mile Trail Run race is on Saturday. We’re actually staying in a hotel on Friday night, so the race is going to feel more adventurous. I’m excited!
I’m going to modify my training plan a little bit, however. My knees have felt better, and I know from experience that pushing it the last week before a race does way more harm than good. So, I’m beginning my taper tomorrow.
| Mon | Tues | Wed | Thurs | Fri | Sat | Sun |
| 5 m | Cross | Cross | Shred | Yoga | Race | Recover |
This is exactly why I create my OWN training plan. Although I base it off of experts’ plans (like Hal Hidgon), I like to make my own so I can modify it when I need to. Hopefully, this early taper will make my knees race-ready. 🙂
Have a great day!
I think it’s important to feel like you have control over your working out. The hardest thing I found with a training program is I felt like I HAD to. Once I starting owning my fitness regimes I found that I enojoyed working out and did more…humm interesting. Good luck training this week. My inner things are already hurting, but feel so much tighter already–shred baby shred.
