Monday Motivation – Rain edition

“Only those who risk going too far can possibly find out how they can go.”
— T. S. Elliot
A crazy rain system settled over our area yesterday and according to the local weather man, it’s going to camp out all week. So I’m trying to psyche myself up for a lot of running in the rain this week. Yes, I could go to the gym and hit the ‘mill, but as my Hyannis snow race taught me, I need to be prepared for any kind of weather come race day. 
I hit 24 miles last week – my biggest training week to date – and I’m happy to say my legs feel pretty good.
On the plan this week:
Monday — Yoga
Tuesday — Tempo run (6)
Wednesday — Easy run (4) and strength training
Thursday — Rest
Friday — LSD (10)
Saturday — weekly Pilates reformer session
Sunday — Easy run (3 or 4)
What do you planned for this week? Make it a good one!

  1. Great job on your mileage! Isn’t this weather sucky?! We had it all last week too! I can’t wait for the summer!!!

  2. Ugh don’t even tell me about rain as we’ve had way more than our share here.
    I’ve started the week with a killer yoga session, hopefully I can keep the momentum going.

  3. Good job logging in the miles. I hate the rain but you right, you gotta be prepared race day to run in any type of weather. Wearing a hat in the rain really does help! -I’m your newest follower 🙂

  4. Great job on your mileage last week!

  5. Looks like a solid plan, i have about 15 miles & 2 yoga days on the schedule this week. We just had some cold weather move in this week too 🙁
