Tuesday + Wednesday exercise

Tuesday was my day off for cardio work. I think it will be my weights day in another week or so, as long as my weight continues to drop. When I got home from work, Jannelle and I went for a walk around the neighborhood. It was 1.32 miles around the south end of weber oaks at a faster than comfortable pace.


Wednesday morning, (hey that's now!) I got out to run with Stephanie again. We were definitely pushing ourselves more than our last run. Even though we didn't make it quite as far as the last run, we shaved about a minute off our miles. That's pretty good in my book ( not that I have a book, but if I had a book I would surely suggest that saving 1 minute over a mile is pretty good!) We ran along the same path as last saturday, with a few oopsy cul-de-sacs removed, and with a tiny extension in the middle section. Overall net was a short distance loss, but the distance was travelled in 3 minutes less time overall.


A great time, and run 3.1 miles at 9:37 pace.

Just playing with mapmyrun, which is much, MUCH nicer now that I know about the follow roads option, I've found nice 4 and 5 mile route extensions. I've also figured out how we can minimize our time on weber road. We can't avoid it all together, as long as we're running from 6082, but the less time on weber the better.

Awesome! That is great to hear. Can't wait for the 4 and 5 mile route extensions. My band is tight, but I'm going to stretch the hell out of it tonight. And my knee doesn't hurt or anything, so that's good. I'm happy I know how to recognize the tightness before it turns into something bad.
