Last week's running went pretty well, as I pretty much stuck to my plan. I ran a little longer than planned a few of the days, but I felt good doing it.
On Friday, my friend and old cross country teammate, Anne, got together for a run and some dinner. We ran about 3+ miles at Quarry Lakes in Fremont and then we ate at this new restaurant in Niles called the Vine. I miss running at Quarry Lakes on a regular basis. It's perfect for all lengths of runs as it has a lot of loops, hills, and is all on dirt. the Vine is a cool little additional to Niles! I would have been out on their patio every Friday had it been open when I lived in Fremont. I was happy with my Vegan sandwich and my Campfire Stout!
I was also super happy to hang out with Anne for the evening! It's funny - we saw each other in January, but had already forgotten about what we told each other! Haha. I miss running with Anne!
Anyways, here is this week's workout plan:
Monday: Day Off from running; roll, stretch, light core
Tuesday: 2 miles easy, dynamic warm up, upper body strength and core
Wednesday: 3 miles moderate, dynamic warm up, lower body strength and core
Thursday: 2.5 miles easy, dynamic warm up, upper body strength and core
Friday: 2 miles easy, dynamic warm up,
Saturday: 3 miles easy, dynamic warm up,
Sunday: 3 miles easy, dynamic warm up, drills, 2 strides
Depending how this week goes, I plan to slowly ramp up my mileage again. I will continue to do all the extras as well, so my increase in running miles will be slow so I don't hurt myself.
My next goal - To run at West Valley Joggers and Striders (WVJS) track race days. On June 20th, WVJS is running an 800 / 1500 / 3000. On June 27th, WVJS is also have a One Mile on the Track. They are having another One Mile on the Track on August 1st.
I'm not 100% sure what I will run on June 20th yet - I think it is dependent on the kind of workouts I can manage in May. I will be in Ireland in May, but I already plan to get a good amount of running in while I am there.
Phill made this delicious dip this weekend...it was awesome:
Well, I don't have much else to say today...my weekend was pretty low key, so I have nothing else to report.
Happy Monday, all!
