okay, 3 workouts in a day is probably not the best idea but, I made the best of it. Yesterday I decided to go for my 2 mile tempo run. I had decided before that 15 minutes would be my cap. I started out and my legs felt heavy from the day before. I cruised on up the hill and was thinking that I wish I felt good like the other day :( I got to the half way point and looked at my time, it seemed a little slow. I ran the next half mile and it was slower than the other day. Blah! For the last half mile which is mostly downhill, I concentrated on form and turnover. I got to the end and stopped my watch. I looked down and it was one second faster than last week. 13:45. Huh? It has been a long time since my runs were getting faster. I attribute this to all the leg work I have been doing. Why did I not think of this earlier? I will enjoy this wave while I can :)
Today's AM workout:
Expresso Bike 8.33 miles
100 squats
50 crunches
25 pullups
25 bench dips
50 step up onto 24 inch box- 25 each leg
50 lunges
The pic is of a headstone in a cemetery near Oberlin Road. Sad to see it neglected.
