First day with club running! I'm really excited to be running with a group of people again and racing soon! This was a very easy conversational pace, getting to chat with some of the other runners.

C • Yay 1

Basketball = fun
Two large blisters on the bottoms of my feet = not fun

Pyramid core (it's been a while since I've done this but I'm much better at the push-up part now!)
3x 10x15lbs bicep curls
3x 30x15lbs calf raises
3x 10x12.5lbs dumbbell flys
3x 10x20lbs tricep extensions
3x 10x12.5lbs shoulder press
3x 10x 45 degree backhyperextension

The back exercise is definitely difficult and it hurts towards the last one or two, but my back isn't hurting at other times, which seems to be a good thing. Im going to keep it in my routine for another week or so to make sure if it's helpful or not. Also I found out the name from a sign on the gym wall. "Hyperextension" doesn't sound good, but like I said, I think it's helping.

Forest hills and back

Slowly sped up between 2.5mi-3mi, and did a short cool down after. Right knee was sorta hurting

Planks

Short morning run. Lots of stop and go with rush hour traffic.

3x 20x85lbs adductors

3x 7x30lbs tricep extensions
3x 10x10lbs dumbbell flys

6min core + sprinters
3x 10x lower back extensions
3x 1min wall sits
6min core

2.5mi warm up, 1mi tempo, 0.5mi cool down

I find that it's easier to do workouts on the treadmill than just a long run because I dislike the treadmill and want to go faster to get it over sooner.
