Well everyone, week eight is over and we now have an updated countdown of 29 weeks! Every once in a while I realize what I have undertaken and it freaks me out! Helene has reminded me to trust her and the training she is providing. Some days I want to do more and others I dont want to train at all, but I have stuck with what she says and things are going well.
In honor of the Christmas holiday tomorrow I found the image below of Santa doing yoga. I will certainly miss the weekly stretching/strengthening yoga class at the WTF tomorrow. I bought a yoga mat today so I can have one under my bike trainer and one to take with me for Bridget's class. :) I look forward to using it on New Years day after the Resolution Run.
This past week on Wednesday I rode on a computrainer at a local bike shop. It was a nine mile race for women. It was some ride and I got to practice my climbing skills! I ended up in third place out of six riders (till Saturday when my roommate did the ride and slaughtered my time).
Sunday I did my first brick workout! It went well, but I ran too fast and Helene told me to remember to run at the pace she assigns if it is specified in my workout log. :) Another brick coming at the end of this week... and many many more in the upcoming 29 weeks!
Today we started week nine - a speed week. I had a dvd trainer ride focusing on power. It was not easy and my legs felt like jelly when I got done! Ha ha! Tomorrow I am going to run in the neighborhood where I grew up. Should be a nice run in the snow.
Merry Christmas Friends!
