Strength / Stretching 10:00 [1]
slept:6.0 weight:129lbs


Shovelling snow -- only because I knew the UPS man was coming.

Strength / Stretching (Strength Training Runners) 54:03 [3] 1.5 mi (36:02 / mi)
shoes: Saucony Grid Omni TR


Strength Training for Runners class:

  • Jog five laps to warm up.

  • Three sets of (high knees / butt-kickers / shuffling / fast-skips / 75-second plank (the last of the three was a two-minute plank)).

  • Three sets of (tuck jumps x 8 / scissor jumps x 8 per leg* / side-to-side jumps x 8 / push-ups x 10 / crunches x 20).

  • Three sets of (one-leg forward jumps x 10 per leg / plank with leg lift x 10 per leg)

  • Two minutes of heel walking and toe walking.

  • Jog 10 laps to cool down.

    * The hip / butt area that was aching as I ran errands this afternoon decided to kick into high-gear during the scissor jumps. I ended up just doing one-leg lunges on my other leg. Maybe I tweaked something when I was shovelling snow this morning? I'm not sure what it is, but it really hurts. Piriformis? I did some stretching and "pigeon pose", but that didn't relieve the pain. I also have sort of a mild dead-leg (numb) feeling, which makes me wonder if a nerve is pinched.
