5.5 mile run on the treadmill

Sunday August 30th

I definitely felt the effects of my "big day" yesterday. Today was mostly an unplanned day off.

Went to PG first thing in the am. Ran 2 miles (SLOWLY) and was pooped. Got off a got a manicure:-) I am working on listening to my body and today it told me to rest!

Saturday Aug. 29th

Woke up to a gorgeous, warm SF morning.

45 minute run

8:30 workout with Carl

W/U jog, push-ups, sit-ups

Main Set:

AMRAP in 15 minutes back squats (65#) with 10 burpees in between each set

Totals - 53 back squats, 60 burpees

25:00 easy jog/ walk home

I felt great this am. Likely a combo of tons of sleep and perfect weather.

Friday Aug. 28th

Noon workout with Diane- crazy hot, about 99 degrees!

Warm-up jog, push-ups

AMRAP 20 minutes

5 thrusters with 20# DBs

10 pull-ups (did 6 pull-ups and then ring rows)

15 push-ups

I managed 8 rounds.

Thurs. Aug. 27th

4.5 mile run in the am at the gym and then 40 minute jog/ walk - probably 6.5-7 miles total for the day.

I have realized that running on the treadmill seems much easier on my body these days. Round ligament pain seems to be caused by hills (mainly downhills).

Wed. Aug. 26th

After a very productive morning in our apartment, Sam and I headed to MV for a ride (Sam) and trail run (Me). I was prepared for a bit of round ligament pain but figured it was worth it for a few good hours in the trails. Unfortunately, I was sidelined early on with sciatic pain (gotta love the pregnancy ailments!) and my long-ish run turned into a much shorter hike. Still, no complaints about a gorgeous afternoon in the trails followed by a great dinner at home.

1:30 trail run / hike in Marin

Tuesday Aug. 25th

Sam had a session with Greg at Catalyst Athletics today so my plan was to work out at 7am and then head down with him and run in Sunnyvale. Things did not go exactly according to plan- very sore from good mornings on Sunday and pretty tired all day. I did my workout at 7am and called it a day.

W/U (included 5x 5 pull-ups, 5 dips)- dips are getting tough with the increased weight (about 9 pounds at this point).

400 meter run

21 Squat cleans (55#)

21 pull-ups (ring rows)

400 meter run

15 thrusters (2 20# DBs)

15 pull-ups (ring rows)

400 meter run

9 squat cleans (55#)

9 pull-ups (ring rows)

I think it was about a 14 minute workout.

Finished with 50 sit-ups. Forearms were smoked from ring rows but felt good.
