Workout catch up

I can't believe a week has already gone by! My last blog was a week ago yesterday, so since then I have done 3 runs and 2 bike rides. I think the weekend before really wore me out!! I felt it for well over a week. We had done a lot of bikes rides on top of the normal activities. Feeling good now though!

Thursday (3/29) - did 4 mile loop at work and ran 3 miles of it (running 1 mile splits)

Friday - biked to PT from light rail and then to work = 6 miles. The way to work is all uphill! 200 ft or so of elevation gain (didn't wear my watch)

Saturday - rest! (volunteered at 4Kay race downtown)

Sunday - ran to Wash Park and did loop. 3.5 miles of running, 4.5 total. (running 1 mile splits). ALSO we volunteered for NCAA final four stuff. Aaron and I were in the wiffle ball bating cages for 4 hours. Chasing balls, chasing kids and running around. I was sore for the next 2 days! My boss even asked why I was limping!

Monday - rest! (10 hours at work and no time for gym)

Tuesday - it snowed! So I ran on the treadmill at work. Ran 3 - 1 mile segments with .25 in between. Over the weekend it was 85 degrees - crazy Colorado weather :-)

Wednesday - tried the new cycling machine at work! It is super neat, although they didn't spring for the console so it doesn't tell you how far you are going or anything like that. But it feels like you are on a real bike and can adjust the resistance. I saw two guys with an iPad app that had a course and told them when there were hills, etc. Sort of like a spin class! Anyways - did 35 minutes on that!

Thursday (today - 4/5) - did 3.2 Orchard Hills loop at work. Today I bumped it up 1.5 mile splits and only walked .2 between. I'll include my splits for that below. The second mile is all uphill (and walked) 


Tomorrow I'll do the biking to PT again and maybe a route during the day if I get enough sleep :-)

On tap for this weekend...
South Boulder Peak hike! I really hope on Saturday! It's a beast...3,000 feet elevation gain! 6.5 miles :-) The views at the end are totally worth it.

Sunday - hopefully a run. But we are having people over for Easter and I might be pretty sore from Saturday, so if not I'll do my long run on Monday! (see next post)
