Week 7 – Half Training

Week 7 already! I feel like the weeks of this training plan are just flying by!

I got some good feedback on my question about step-back weeks – and for the most part I ran the suggested distances on the plan. I did bump Friday’s “long” run up to 6 miles just because I was feeling really good. I even took an extra rest day yesterday cause my legs were just feeling dead – so I decided to sleep in and then head to the beach with my hubs J and the boys. We had a great day!

This week begins the final push to Providence:

Monday — Yoga
Tuesday — Tempo run (5)
Wednesday — Easy run (2 or 3) plus strength training
Thursday — Rest day
Friday — Long run (10)
Saturday — Strength training
Sunday — Easy (4)

I’m also recommitting to doing ab work daily, cause that’s been sliding lately. I’m also gonna tighten up on what I’ve been eating – I’ve been really good during the week and then letting everything slide on the weekend…not exactly an effective strategy to shake these last 5 lbs, right?!

So, what are you up to this week?

Happy Running!

  1. I am also in training. 🙂
    Did 3 miles this morning on the oh so wonderful treadmill. lol.
    Do you enjoy yoga? I want to try it but I am afraid of looking ridiculous.

  2. Jeanette I probably do look ridiculous! LOL! I use one of Rodney Yee’s DVDs – haven’t tried to take my yoga public yet 😉

  3. Wow 7 weeks already!
    It’s weird to think of the final push already. Your week looks good. Mine is similar although I’ll be milling as hubby is out of town. Bleh.
