so i missed mondays workout off the mainsite. row 5k. have no access to a rower right now so would have had to get creative. did the snatches yesterday and knew today would be mainsite rest but needed to get in a workout......so.....run it was....
treadmill. i am not opposed to the treadmill and considering it was 14 degrees when i got up and dark out the treadmill seemed like a good option.
did a 1/4mile warm-up walk/jog 8% incline
ran 5k 8:20 pace 2% incline
felt pretty good. little stale at the 2.5ish mark but i think it was that i was smelling the finish.
did a 1/2 mile cool down walk/jog
was going to do a little bodyweight work or some SDLHP to make up for not rowing but was pretty blown after the run. didnt realize it when i was moving but once i stopped i knew i had enough.
slept like crap last night. high stress personal life crap right now. hopefully will work itself out, sure it will but its been eating at me. focusing on family and work instead and trying to keep it positive. realize it could be much worse...
will not let it get me into a slump like a year or so ago. got a bit depressed and fell off the training wagon. had been riding a lot at the time and working out a bit as well. had decent fitness. had done the cohutta 100 and shenandoah 100 that year as well as a few shorter races. let it slip away. gained crap weight and lost a lot of motivation. need to focus and not fall into that rut.
sleep is key. sleep good, get up early and get it done......
ok enough of that crap. moving on.....
been enjoying the running. need to get outside more but that will come with the weather.
may have added an event to the calender for the spring. not 100% yet but it looks good. will put it up in a separate post once i finalize it.
