Hi! Today was my rest day. I think I´ll run 3 days and rest in between as opposed to doing weights. Laurie, can you ask DD for me how much to taper off? My race is June 3 and is a 10K. My long runs are around 7 miles. According to one coach I´ve been looking at my long runs should now be...

Good evening! Today was a 4 mile run. It is my "rest week" but I´m not sure if I should totally rest with my race coming up. Welcome to our forum Sam! I know what you mean about the family thinking you´re nuts!! My family has gotten used to it :) and now DD19 does a few Cathe herself...

Hi! I am on my last week of undulating STS...can´t wait to finish. Every time I do STS I am so ready to finish. Nice job, heartymax, although remember that meso 1 is lifting lighter weights for more reps, so now check how much heavier you can do meso 1 :D:D:eek: I find that my weights have...

I know what you mean. I think that many of us who have worked hard at being fit have that mentality. After joining this forum many moons ago and seeing the advice, I do take weeks off...usually a week after about 8 weeks of working out. I see it as much as a discipline as working out.

Hi! Today was STS legs #9. I had planned on doing some extra for the shin muscles (what are those called again?) and some abs, but, boy, once I get home, I find other things to do, so maybe tomorrow. Sue, yes, Zuzana is...something else! keep an eye on that foot. Hope it doesn´t get...

Friday already! This is the last week of the quarter, so I am getting ALL kinds of makeup work in, having to grade it, etc, so although I have gotten in my exercise I have not had time to visit with you! I hate our school´s policy on makeups. It used to be up to each teacher and I simply gave...

Just a quick check-in. My only exercise yesterday was walking Tank...he LOVES the snow and just runs/lopes through it, so I purposely took him on uncleaned sidewalks :) Then I did a little snowblowing. Thought about the shovel but after partially doing the steps decided the thrower was better...
