  • Good morning! Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. The weather was so great here. Welcome back SeeMyFeet! Hello magistra17!

    iDream, looks like you've been busy already this month. What is a "cold start" warm up?

    Planning for week two is going to be tough. I may have a dinner out on Tuesday night (which means I won't be able to get to the gym - maybe I'll manage to get up early LOL) and we are going camping this weekend. I am going to try to go for a run at the campground, but weekends away are always difficult! So the plan is made, but adherence is the issue :P

    May goal: 40 miles, 5x strength train (ST), plan workouts weekly

    6/1: 1/5 ST, Week 1 plan
    6/3: Run, 2.52/40 miles
    6/4: 2.54 mile run = 5.06/40 miles
    6/6: 2.52 mile run = 7.58/40 miles
    6/7: 4.06 mile run = 11.64/40 miles
    6/8: Week 2 plan

    Week 2 Plan:
    Monday: P.M. HIIT at gym, 2.5 miles
    Tuesday: P.M. Rest (or A.M. run! Being optimistic here)
    Wednesday: P.M. Strength at gym, 1 mile run
    Thursday: P.M. Run - 2.5 miles
    Friday: Rest
    Saturday: A.M. Run - 3.6 mile trail run at park
    Sunday: A.M. Run - 2 mile trail run at park

    = 11.6 miles total

  • Joy, funny you say that because I felt like I should have done way more by now! I started C25K in February (and bought the shoes shortly after), but only recently started running closer to 10 miles/week. I'm sure it will really start to add up now.

    What are you growing in your garden? Hope you've gotten some of this rain that's been dumping on us out on the east coast!
  • Good morning ladies!!

    Nonameslob
    ~ Cold Start is just a 'little extra somethin' somethin' to get you goin' in the mornin', at least that's what Tony says. LOL It's just a warm up before the 30 minute workout. I think it's about 13 or 14 minutes long and boy does it help get your body warmed up and ready for the workouts! on the 100 miles!!! Awesome job!

    gardenerjoy
    ~ Hurray for consistency! That has always been the hardest part for me. I need to see an end date, that's why I like doing programs/routines that have a solid start and finish day. I also get really bored doing the same thing over and over...hence the changing it up.

    JenDestiny ~ girl, it sounds like you hit upon the perfect motivation! You stay on that elliptical as long as you want!

    My goal is to get my Block 2 P90X3 workouts (and cold start warm ups) in daily and one day of rest on Sunday.

    June 2: Triometrics and cold start
    June 3: Yoga X and cold start

    June 6: MMX and cold start
    June 7: Rest
    June 8: Eccentric Upper and cold start
    June 9: Triometrics and cold start

    Got in a bigger burn today than I did with last week's Triometrics, whew! One of these days I'll make it through the entire workout and actually be able to do it all. For now...I just try to keep up and do what I can.

    Okay ladies, off to check in on our sister group! Have a great day girls!!
  • Another day....another work out. Sadly, the super cute guy that I normally work out next to is going out of town to Costa Rica for TWO WEEKS. I will have to find someone else to look at while I huff and puff on the elliptical. hehe.
