    HFM Training - Week 10

    Sunday - rest
    Monday - 14 km long run

    Tuesday - 5 km steady run
    Wednesday - 5 km, 6x hill of doom
    Thursday - 6 km steady run
    Friday - rest
    Saturday rest, optional restorative yoga class

    The long run is done for the week and now that it is a bit warmer, had my first run of the season on the pedestrian path on Lake Ontario, not far from my house. Very pretty by the water this morning!

    Jenn - I am not doing leg & beast abs, & then going for these runs! All of this “beast” stuff just sounds so much more exotic and challenging than “running”.

    Jamie - Happy Birthday!! That bench was a real find!! Have a great day!!

    It was a beautiful running morning so did my 6 km today. My back is not perfect & slowing me down at points, but physio work is helping.

    The latest quote from Coach Steve. Not sure why all of these military motifs are popping up in my life lately, but here you go:

    “Now if you are going to win any battle you have to do one thing. You have to make the mind run the body. Never let the body tell the mind what to do. The body will always give up. It is always tired morning, noon, and night. But the body is never tired if the mind is not tired. When you were younger the mind could make you dance all night, and the body was never tired...You've always got to make the mind take over and keep going." - George S. Patton, U.S. Army General and 1912 Olympian

    The morning dog walkers look at me with shock & horror (maybe a bit of awe) as I run up & down the hill of doom so many times!

    Hiccups at the beginning of my week. Was one day ahead of you guys now I'm one day behind. Monday I ended up going to the hospital with a client. All is good. Life happens. I'm going for a run with my sister and then it's back and biceps with the hubby when I get back.

    Monday after work and after the date lol: Last week's Rest Day + Last week's Beast Abs DONE
    Tuesday morning : Build Back and Bis + Last week’s Abs DONE
    Wednesday morning : Beast Cardio DONE
    Thursday morning : This week’s Beast Abs +Build Shoulders DONE
    Friday after work : Build Chest and Tris
    Saturday after work : Rest Day
    Sunday morning : Build Legs

    Hey guys !
    Oh that shoulders workout just kicked my *kitten* ! Wooohhhhhhhh
    I did the Abs first and I think that it is a good plan for me. Combining it with the cardio is just too much and I find I do a much better job, let alone enjoy it much more when I isolate it.

    Looks like we are all working hard and letting our strong minds do the deciding rather than our bodies huh !

    Great work guys !
    Jamie, how do you like your new toy ?

    You may or may not know but Bianca will be away from us for a little bit as family stuff is happening. I know she’ll be back with us as soon as she can.

    I used the bench this time since my hips feel good. Fingers crossed they will stay that way since it will only be 1 time a wk. Hammer and chisel did a lot more.

    And that’s Week 2 DONE !!!
    WOOOHOOOOOOOOO

    Great job Jenn ! And great plan too ! All we have to do is take it one day at a time right ?
    One thing at a time, with a plan, is I think the best way to get things done.

    BRing on Week 3 !
    This one has a few twists and turns for me but, here is the plan.
    I am trying my best to adapt to life.
    Right ?!

    Here it is:
    Monday after work : Build Back and Bis
    Tuesday after work : Beast Cardio
    Wednesday after work : Build Shoulders
    Thursday after work and another retirement dinner : Build Chest and Tris
    Friday morning : Build Legs, then leave for the weekend
    Saturday : Rest
    Sunday when I get home : Build Back and Bis

    Have a great week guys !
    Maybe we might even get a taste of spring this week !
    Lol
    Or not
    Lol

    HFM Training - Week 11

    Sunday - cancelled
    Monday - cancelled
    Tuesday - cancelled
    Wednesday - 7 km run
    Thursday - ? Maybe 5 km run
    Friday - 16 km run
    Saturday - rest

    Well, we had a two day ice and wind storm here in Toronto. High winds, hail, freezing rain, power outages, downed trees & power lines. It was pretty scary, especially last night when our area lost power & there were lots of emergency vehicles around. Still some freezing rain this morning & schools are closed. So much for Spring! While I can run in a lot of different weather, this is even too much for me! So I will adjust and do 2 or 3 runs later this week & hopefully, things will have cleared by then. The hill of doom is too dangerous right now due to fallen trees (darn!), so no hill training. On the bright side, this gives me an opportunity to focus more with my physio this week. Hope that you all have a good week!
