So I did end up skipping the tempo run yesterday.. I just couldn’t torture myself like that lol and I am so far out from the half marathon anyway, why risk overtraining?  I’ve given myself enough time to do this comfortably.  But I hit bis/tris/back anyway. 

Today my legs are still sore mostly my butt though and it’s tolerable enough so I did my 3 mile run, legs felt really heavy tho, and hit chest and shoulders. 

Haven’t updated in awhile, had a 3 mile EZ run Sunday
yesterday was legs and CT, I went up in squats to 165lbs, adduction and abductions to 190lbs, plie squat to 65lbs, then did an hour on the elliptical. and HOLY SHIT AM I SORE!  Damnnn…

Today I am supposed to do a 35min tempo run, but right now walking is kinda a challenge so I just may not be doing that… we’ll see tho. 

7 miles 65mins (when did I get so fast damn!lol) Hung over as ****, knee is swollen from dancing last night, feet kill, and I am gonna change my name to puppy chow.

You know what, I’m not affraid of dogs, I love dogs, I’m a huge dog person. BUT WTF!!!!

THREE dogs tried to attack me today THREE!!!!  WTF!!!! What is wrong with people here!? 

I live 40mins outside Boston, we are three weeks away from the Boston Marathon, I know a good 20 people personally running it and a half dozen that train on this same road I run on.  So why the **** are all thes dogs loose???!!!!

The first encounter today was 2 dogs at one house, a rottweiler and a doberman pinscher.  The rottweiler was chained up but started running for me and i’m thinking i"it’s ok it’s ok it’s on a leash" and BROKE his f*cking chain to chase me down and I’m screaming " NO! NO! BAD DOG! GO LAY DOWN, HELP YOUR DOG BROKE ITS LEASH! NO! GO AWAY!" and the owner comes running out and the doberman pinscher pushed through the door and ran out after me to.  So I’ve got these two dogs hair all standing up growling and barking infront of me the rottweiler knocks me down and i’m like holding it by the throat and i’m screaming "NO BAD DOG! GO LAY DOWN!" and finally the guy comes up and grab the rottweiler and apologizes and makes sure i’m ok. 

If he hadn’t come out these 2 dogs were not gonna just back down like the shepard.  I was legitimately f*cking scared.

The 3rd dog was an older fat black lab, he was slow and didn’t get to far before the owner realized what was happening and called him back.   

IDK what my time will be like for the actually race because i’m not gonna be running scared shitless you know?  Every time I hear a dog bark now it’s like running over one of those speed up things in mario kart

I’m so frustrated right now. IDK if I can keep doing this, I don’t wanna get hurt.  I am seriously scared to go running, I mean what am I supposed to do??? Anyone else have this much of a problem so far this season?  I think I have actually been lucky to have not gotten seriously hurt yet! Grrrrr!

Pretty uneventful day. did 5X400 meter sprinting then jogging.  Then went to the gym to hit abs.  Their were sooo many people at the gym today.  I hate when it’s like that! lol

Oh and I shampooed my carpet in my car today so it doesn’t smell like rotting protein shake anyway YAY! haha

Tomorrow is an off day for cardio but I’m gonna hit whole upper body I think. 

Basically same workout as last week but I went up to 35lbs dumbbells for deadlifts.  most of my lifts felt pretty easy today despite how sore I still am….next week I will definately be going up on more of my exercises. 

But I am feeling 100% better this week and am fully energized and motivated!

Did a 2 mile EZ run today.  I actually went a different route then i’ve been going and ran up a hill I used to have to walk up.  I was very proud. 

But my WHOLE body hurts today, it’s bizarre!  Like everything just aches, and I took an epsom salt bath already.  The worst is like my chest/shoulders- as soon as I picked them up to start running today they felt like they weighted a million pounds.  I think I need to get a massage!

But I saw these in my yard today! Spring is right around the corner!

Ran 7 miles in 66 minutes!

The only reason why my time was so good though is because I almost got mauled by a german shepherd!  Thankfully this is the same dog type of dog my family bred when I was little so my reaction was just like natural reaction lol-stopped, screamed "NO! BE NICE!", and pinned its head down to the ground until it calmed down.  If I had tried to run from it, it would have thought it was a game and tackled me. 

But ya my next 2 miles were like a ****ing dead on sprint because of the adrenaline rush! 

I am gonna run 7 miles tomorrow, weather is supposed to be nice, got new sneakers, feeling more energized again.   I am hoping it goes well! haha

Today was supposed to be my rest day but I did bi’s/tri’s and abs this morning.
