My body really needed those two days of rest last week. After having a horrid run on Thursday, my legs were screaming at me to rest. No yoga, no spinning, nothing. I can’t help but feel guilty when I go two days in a row with zero exercise, but my legs really needed it this time. They felt fresh when I headed to the gym Sunday. Even though I like to get my long runs in outside, the 10 degree weather & snowy sidewalks forced me to the treadmill, which actually went great. I kept a pace of 9:36/mile average for the run. It was sweet!

Workout schedule for this week

Sunday – 11 mi – HMRRC Winter Marathon Relay – Leg 1 (Leg 1 is 9.7 miles–I’ll just add on mile at the track afterward) This is the third year I’ve done the relay, and every year is so COLD! This year will probably be the same.
