momofkhm Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Good morning ladies! Pool day for me. I got my own lane!! Dh shared his towards the end, but I didn't have to share. Then dh went futher today than he has been, so he moved over to mine when I left. I went a mile, but he went 1.25. (He's doing a 1/2 ironman in May so he needs to increase his swim distance. The swim in the race is 1.2 miles.) Time Taken: 00:37:36 Total Distance: 1.00 mi. Laps: 36 Burned: 263 (kcal) Laps: 36 Pace: 37:36 (avg) Speed: 1.6 (mi/hr) (avg) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kim in Appalachia Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I did a short run/walk, only 40 minutes, with more walk than run. I have a busy day ahead, and I am having a hard time getting motivated to get done!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lauranav Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I dragged myself out of bed (finally) and got in a short strength training session, a cardio session, and a jump rope intervals session. This makes 5 weeks that I've been consistent about working out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamnkats Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 :crying: :crying: :crying: :banghead: After taking yesterday off for my first rest day in forever, I decided to go back to week 5 of C26K as it seems my injury must be healed by now. I was on the 3rd 5 minute run after a long 26 minute 14.5 min/mile walking warmup and my muscle tore AFREAKINGAIN. I'm so upset! I was able to walk afterwards and realize I must have torn it much worse the first time - the first time must have been a grade 2 as this is definitely a tear (blood pooling on top of my calf muscle) but so much easier than the first one. So boohoohoo, too soon I guess. I was doing the rehab and stretching and thought I was doing everything right - it had been 2.5 weeks since the injury and now I'm back to hobbling. Sigh. I'm DEFINITELY taking a month off running and only walking but I have to tell you, the running today was so incredibly lovely - I felt so good and strong and wonderful. Sigh. So, I got over 4 miles in today but the last half mile was a real PITA. RICEing the leg and hoping I'll be able to walk the day after tomorrow. Boohoohoo afreakingain.

Tani Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 Nothing worse than trying to rehab a torn muscle. I was just lurking to see how everyone was doing and had to send my sympathy to you. I haven't worked out in sooo long. JUST now getting over a nasty 10 week cough. I am going to try to get back to it this weekend. One way or another, I NEED my endorphines:lol: Tani Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rose in BC Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I am feeling great these last couple of days because the weather is cooperating. My running partner and I are aiming to increase our distance by the Spring so tonight we felt good and added a kilometre and I didn't die! lol!

Rose in BC Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 I can imagine your frustration. Take care and take the time to let it heal.:grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
