6 days
Six days till the urbanathalon, this is going to be a tough week, already I’m second guessing my training. I know I haven’t ran as much as I should have but I feel confident in my cardio and running stamina. Instead focused on over-all body strength and getting my cardio by other means such as 30 minute conditioning classes, jump rope and treadmill intervals.
This week it will take all my will power to not try to push myself andrun 10 miles or do a heavy lift but instead I need to focus on keeping limber and the muscles loose and rested. The plan for the week is light weights for all workouts and maybe an easy interval early in the week. Of course this is Sunday, come Thursday I might be thinking I need to squeeze one more hard work out in, that will not be good and I will have to find a distraction to prevent any stressful workouts. I need every muscle in my body to be rested and ready for action come Saturday morning.
Hopefully when I get home from Chicago I can write up exactly how it went and post my time with pride….
