    4.5 mi 00:50 11:06 pace

    I actually have no idea how far I ran, since my phone registered almost 6mi, my Garmin is dead, and I can't use mapmyrun.com via the iPad...but I'm thinking 4-4.5ish.

    Today's run was for Sherry, B... read more

    4 rounds - 15 burpees, 25 squats, 35 situps.

    If I can move from sitting to standing tomorrow, it will be an accomplishment.

  3. RUN
    4.5 mi 00:46 10:13 pace

    I'm really guessing on the distance and the time as my Garmin died at the beginning of my run; distance is estimated off of mapmyrun.com.

    So Coach wanted me to do 5 today, 4 on Sunday - as you can... read more

    Ouch.

    One word for this : BLEECCCCH.

    So goal today, per Coach Adam R., was to run 4 miles "easy" and then 4 miles at "tempo" at 10min/mile.

    First four (minus the issues with the bel... read more

      I feel like my stomach issues go in waves. I'll have a week's worth of gunk runs and then it sorts itself out. Either way, way to get out there!

    good 00:10:00

    Repeat x5 - x10 tuck jumps, x15 back extensions (which I substituted "Good Mornings", or semi-dead lifts but straight-legged) for. Overall not too bad, though I think it's because my tuck... read more

    Tabata intervals - 8 rounds of each, 20sec all out and 10sec recovery - pushups, air squats, sit-ups. Thankfully the hardest (pushups) were done first.

  9. RUN
    good 4.5 mi 00:45 10:01 pace

    This was "supposed to be" an easy run today...and it WAS fun and easy, just not the way Coach would have wanted me to do it. Again, I'm getting bored right now so I just kept upping the p... read more

  10. RUN
    good 10 mi 01:44 10:21 pace

    Had to fit my long run in today as this weekend holds nowhere near enough time to get this in....even still, had to break it into two runs.

    Run #1 - 3mi, 31:02 (avg 10:20min/mi pace) - felt pretty... read more

    Magic Mile Day!!

    Assignment from Coach Adam R. - 2mi warmup (easy), 1mi balls-to-the-wall, 1mi cooldown.

    FYTO5K race recap for Adam R.

      I used to get exercise induced asthmas. No fun! Inhaler really helped as well as taken my time to warm up up and ease into the run with a few strides too.
