Run (Treadmill) 51:00 [3] 5.03 mi (10:08 / mi)
shoes: ON
Run 3: On the TM, run for 50:00 at normal easy pace, but each 5:00, crank the incline up to 4% and run the same pace but uphill for 1:00. Then lower it back down and continue till the next hill starts.
Started new eating regime, have been losing weight! Woo-hoo! And lots of energy, AND I'm eating a lot less than I normally do, go figure!
Along with that means I have to eat before my workout, and imagine how much energy I now have for my workouts, it's amazing what food does. :)
I was a little worried about my hip flexor pain, of course my mind immediately went to having a pelvic bone stress fracture. Yesterday at crossfit I realized that it's the muscles in my low, low abdominal area that are sore, weirdest thing ever! I think I just need to stretch. This started last week on my long run, got better over the weekend and then got worse during the Monday fartleks.
