    Now that I have a feel for my macros, I'm kinda over logging at the moment, and I might just use a mental tally system.

    Fun training news! I'm doing a 50k in 2 weeks. I don't have enough time to get my running mileage up, so I'm planning to run half and walk half. I've been curious what this ultra thing is all about. I might not be posting here frequently though.

    Today: ran 10 miles, mix of beach and hills. Hiked 1.5 hours no weight light effort. Bouldering in gym for 30 minutes. Mild strength gains with climbing.

    Took a rest day yesterday but back at it this morning. Added some side lunges back into my workout at a little lower weight......muscle felt pretty good with it. I won't add any of the big lifts back in for a couple of weeks still but I think it's healing nicely.

    Today: 45 min circuit training including 3 sets each of 20 one arm elevated pushups, 2 min elevated leg plank, 20 physio ball squats, 15 decline situps w/10 lb plate, 15 each side incline crunch twists w/10 lb plate, 20 physio ball crunches w/25 lb plate and 3 min stairmaster intervals. 30 min strength training including 3X10 cable deltoid fly w/10/10, 3X10 cable chest press w/23/23, 3X10 cable kneeling lat pulldown w/37/37, 3X 16 side lunge w/17.5/1705 lbs dumbbells, 3X80 steps Farmers Toe Walk w/25/25 and 3X 10 inner thigh w/110. 30 min swim.

    Food right around 1700 these days with a couple of meals out added to that. Seems to be working ok.....mostly maintaining but still lose a pound every now and then.

    Second guessing this 30k scheme. Alternating between 10 mile and 6 mile days and the 10 mile days aren't hard... (I'm doing 10 mph on flats and 12 on steep hills ) but I'm feeling a little taxed from the upped running miles. Of course, I'm still hiking for work, climbing and boxing on top of running... And I started my period yesterday... And then there's the fact that I'm only getting 6 hours of sleep... So really... It could be anything.

    @ Wildflower.......nutrition: hubby is trying to feed me stuff that i don't need in my diet. he's thinking I'm becoming too skinny. haha, i am not skinny at all

    My husband does the same thing and I'm definitely not skinny. I'm not sure I get it but sometimes I think he buys cinnamon rolls or whatever for me because that's really what he wants.....LOL

    Yesterday I took the dog out for a fast 40 min walk.

    Today: 60 min circuit training including 3 sets each of 12 pushups, 20 physio ball wall squats, 20 physio ball crunches w/25 lb plate, 15 physio ball pikes and bridges, 10 renegade rows w/20 lbs, 10 good mornings w/20/20 lbs, 15 decline situps w/10 lb plate, 2 min elevated leg plank, 15 hanging leg lifts and 3 min stairmaster. 35 min weight lifting including 2X5 bench press w/65 lbs and 3X5 bench w/85 lbs, 3X10 shrugs w/95 lbs, 3X10 upright rows w/45 lbs, 3X 20 TRX single leg squats, 3X 16 side lunges w/17.5/17.5 lbs, 3X 20 box stepups and 3X 10 inner thigh w/110lbs. 10 min bike resistance 11/13.5 mph.

    I've been burning more calories lately between the swimming and the longer circuit training sessions so I'm going to try to up my calories a bit......closer to 1800 I think.

    Hope you're all having a great week!!!!

    Upping miles, less sleep, and a period are definitely not a good combo, lol!
