Well, after having a horrible run on Sunday, I really needed to just put it behind me, and i did just that. I rested on Monday and today, Tuesday, I ran on the treadmill for my 3 mile scheduled run. I got to the gym later than I wanted to as Tewksbury had the main road shut down and I had to take a detour. Once at the gym I did a short 10 minute free weight work out. A little switch as I usually do this after my run. I then did a two minute warm up on the Treadmill, getting my first mile in under 10 minutes and forcing myself to get the second mile in under 20 ... just barley. my heart rate hit 147, which i am happy about. i have a hard time getting it over 102. (my resting hr is 48) Anyway my last mile i managed to get done in over ten minutes. What an exhilarating run! I walked for 5 min after and stretched. I was able to get my 3 mile time to 30:11 :) I am so very happy with this. oh, on another note, no knee brace, no pain :) yay!
Wed: To the gym to do 30 min on the elliptical, with a short upper leg work out. :) legs feel great! tummy not so much. :( ugh.... mind over matter!
Thursday: 3 miles
