Week 8 of 2014

Goals for Week 8 of 2014 were these:  Run 4 times.  Total mileage 12-14 miles.  Get in the pool once and swim at least 1000 yards.  Bike 2-3 times of 30 minutes or more each.  Find elliptical again and do at least a mile. Do 50 pushups on toes.  Teach all regular scheduled classes.  Eat cleaner this week.


Monday:  3.5 miles of running, 1 Yoga class
Tuesday: Body Sculpt
Wednesday:  1 mile elliptical, Body Sculpt class, 4.33 miles of running
Thursday:  30 minutes biking, .25 miles running, Zumba class
Friday: swam for 25 minutes, rested and stretched most of the day
Saturday: Ran 6.27 miles (3.15 was a race)
Sunday:  Rest

Bad:   Didn't do all my scheduled classes.  Missed teaching Body Sculpt on Monday due to severe weather.  Did get on my bike, but not as much as I had hoped to.  Went swimming, but didn't record laps, so I don't have yardage.  I was at a hotel pool, so I basically just did water exercises for 25 minutes and some laps.  I forgot all about the pushups out side of class.  I did do all my pushups in class on my toes, so that is good and there were at least 50 of those.

Good:  Did find my elliptical and used it for a mile.  Managed to run 5 separate times, so I achieved the goal of getting out 4 times.  Here's the thing, not sure if I can really count the .25 on Thursday night.  I had a hair appointment so I arrived to the gym 30 minutes past when I usually go, so I only got .25 on the treadmill when class needed to start, then planned to run after, but realized I had a plasma appointment so I had to get out of there.  Saturday I ran two separate times.  3.12 miles before the 5K race to warm up, then the race, so that might only count as 1 time running.  I did another yoga class this week and that was great.  I'm still horrible at it, but I feel it is helping my flexibility. I did eat cleaner this week.

Either way I achieved 14.35 miles of running for the week and to me that is excellent mileage.
