Say It, Do It

Here are my results from last week:


Monday: 5 x 1000m @ 5k pace with 200 recovery job between each interval.  Abs.
I did 4 instead of 5 due to a time crunch.  My dad was coming over to take a look at our leaking house.  Felt good though.Tuesday: Biceps, back and legs. 2-3 mile run, slow.  Abs.
2 mile run.  10.5 mile bike ride.  Shoulders.Wednesday: Tri's and shoulders.  4 miles, hills (read: overpass, it's Florida)
9.5 mile bike ride.  3.1 miles of hills.  I got a horrible cramp at mile 2 and pushed through until 3.1 and decided to not push it any further.  Abs.Thursday: ~15 mile bike ride. Abs.
Rested.Friday/Saturday: Rest one day, 10 mile run the other day.
Realized I had to run my 10 mile run Friday because of a laser hair removal treatment, so I got up at 4:20am to get in the run.  I ran less than a mile and had pain shooting up my calf and shin.  I thought I just needed to run it out and I'd be fine.  No such luck.  I ended the run at 5 miles so I didn't hurt myself.  It still hurts :(  The race is in less than 3 weeks.  Lame.  I'm going to attempt 10 again tomorrow if I feel up to it.  Also did some major abs to work out my frustration of not completing my run.  Boo.Sunday: REST
Rested.


Total: Ran 13.75 miles, Biked 20 miles, shoulders, and abs.  Not so stellar week.  I'll do better this week hopefully.


This week:
Monday: Abs, shoulders and tris.  
Tuesday: 10 mile run (please please pleeeaaseee!) 
Wednesday: Biceps, back, abs.
Thursday: Speed work of at least 3-4 miles depending on how the legs feel.
Friday: 10-15 mile bike ride.
Saturday/Sunday: Wedding time for friends!


Hopefully this week goes better than last!
