Monday March 7: Off day. Way too many things to do today related to the house we are buying. So, life gets in the way of training today.
Tuesday March 8: Weight trained in the early AM. I did 2 sets of 15 reps of the following exercises: deep squats (at 95 lbs), hops (no weight), bench press (did reps of 8 on this one, at 115 lbs), leg press (at 90 lbs), pull downs (did reps of 8 on this one, at 100 lbs), power press (with 20lb dumbells), sit-ups at steep incline (did reps of 20 on this one), step ups (with 25 lb dumbbells). Overall felt good.
Skipped sprints today b/c of the cold, wet, and nasty weather outside. Weak I know.
Wed. March 9: Did a five mile run at a nearby park. Took me 38:22 for about a 7:40 pace. Avg. heart rate of 169. Not feeling so good afterwards. First stages of some illness, perhaps respiratory.
Thurs. March 10: off day due to illness.
Sat. March 12: Ran 18 miles on same single-track, mountain bike trail as last Saturday. Took me 3:03. Felt good, save my upper respiratory issues. Avg. heart rate of 158. Elevation gain/loss: 1,336 ft/1,328 ft. Recoverite and ice bath afterwards. Sunday I had minimal soreness, but my illness worsened. I think I need to take in more daily calories.
