More Bleck
I'm starting to get sick. I felt it coming on Sunday and went out for a run. It was worse Monday and I went out for a run. Today I felt really shitty and skipped the gym (eliptical, legs and core) I'm hoping I will feel better tomorrow and can exchange my rest day for tuesday's gym day. I hate Monday, Wednesday and Friday gym days b/c that's when all the New Years newbies go. Oh...the gym membership was not stopped. Whew. I could of dealt with it if it were, but I like cross training.
I'm doing speed work once a week now. Basically it's 1 mile warm-up and 2 miles of sprints (30 sec on/30 sec walk and 30 sec jog, repeat) Is that right? I hope to get the sprint longer, but 30 seconds is my max right now. I am trying to stop the 30 sec walk and increasing the jog by the leftover. I'm curious how others do their speed work. Feel free to comment. My husband isn't impressed with the 30 second sprint. It should be longer like he used to do it when HE WAS 16 and done on a extremely steep, steep hill. I reminded him that he may think I'm 16 because I have such a rockin bod, but I'm actually 40. Did I mention he snorted out his beer at that comment.
My baby (how long can I get away with that?) was seen by the speech therapist yesterday for a consult. She says one day a week is not enough. She can max at 2 days a week. I'm psyched. He was good for her, but tried to lob a few of her toys at her head. He's got good aim and a strong right. He also has some good leg kicks when he gets really mad. He's practically brought me down with a good double kick to my shins.
My husband went hunting Saturday and got two ducks. Neither kid started crying or got grossed out while he was cleaning them. They weren't to interested either, but some kids would start bawling. (me) Not to into the hunting thing. I'm sure it will all pay off when the supermarket runs out of meat someday.
Oh on a final note. Signed up for S1rius radio (i justified it since the hubby refuses to carry a cell phone/electronic leash) It's great. I reccommend it to everyone and anyone. I assume xm is pretty much the same deal w/channels and price. Just my 2 cents

Hope you feel better soon.
My take on sprints is to incorporate sections of slightly faster running, about 30-40 seconds, into a jog. 30 seconds sounds about right. After all, if you can sprint any longer than that, it wouldn't be a sprint any more. I'd also leave as much time as possible to recover in between sprints (but still jogging), not neccesarily a fixed time, but enough for you to get your breath back and feel ready for another round of sprints.
To be honest, 2 miles of sprints and one mile of warmups sounds a little too much for me, but if you feel okay after that then go with it.
Why don't you sign little David up for karate lessons?
I'm still new to the speedwork thing too.
But from what I observed from others, they all seem to take to the track field for 400's or 800s all the way up 2 mile repeats with lap recovery jogs.
Hunting, I agree with you. Now my hubby, he thinks otherwise with some of his frens.
Oh I hope you get WELL super soon! Not fun...
Hey thanks for your comment. I can't possibly be inspiring anyone...! It's one thing to sign up for something, quite another to actually follow thru! But look at you doing SPEEDWORK!! Don't even mention it to me! (of course I did it all wrong.) I'm just tryin' to get back to running 3 miles without dying.
feel better soon!
