AM Ran 2 with Griffin and then off to the gym for some repeats. No new snow this morning so I was very tempted to just run outside, but I really wanted to run in shorts. I also wanted to wear my HRM because I have been doing this workout towards the end of my weeks, but this week it's the first workout I'm because I'm planning to run a 5k this weekend, but still wanted to fit this workout in somewhere. My avg. HR was higher than it has been in past weeks, and I think it's because my muscles are tight from the rest day. Usually I've been running for 3 days already before this type of run so everything is a lot looser. Based on today, I think body likes the routine of long run, easy day, tempo, repeats or strides, easy day, easy day w/ plyometrics, day off. We''l see how consistent I can be with this. : )
Run: 2 miles with Griffin 1.5 miles warm-up, 12 x 200m about 5:20 pace with 400m recovery. Avg. HR was 161, peak HR was 180. 1.5 miles cool-down Drills: 2 sets butt-kicks, high-knees, carioca, stiff-leg, 10 forward & backward lunges Strength: 30 push-ups
