BFL for Wed Jan 23rd 2008

Hey guys....guess who! Just got in from my run. Pure heaven. The winds were whipping my face and my hat almost flew off several times, but I'm done. Did an out-and-back....took me 19:30 to get 'out', but only 16:00 to get 'back'. LOL So I added on some loops around the neighborhood to log 40 minutes. I am going to drive the path tonight to see how far it is.

Sorry, still no time for personals. Now I have to go meet the bus! After I take the kids to Religion classes, I'll chat some more.

But real quick...KATHY! I have 7 miles with HILLS on the schedule for tomorrow, but I'm nost sure i have a pocket of time to do that outside. What iTreads would you think would be good for hills? I think 25 Top 40, right? Is there another one that I could add to that one??? Just curious, in case I have to do it on the TM.

Heidi – Thanks so much for your response. I guess I’ll just continue as planned as get my “cardio" fix as my long runs on the weekends get LONGER. :)

Great workouts everyone! I enjoy reading all these posts about adding more “oomph” to blasts, etc! Sorry for the long post again, I’m attaching some descriptions for Gayle.

Hi Gayle,
Here are a few with hills and sprints, Grace seems to like to combine both together. You could probably mix and match phases to make a total hill run….or leave as is. I have “jogger” speeds written and as you know, it’s usually a full point higher for runner (i.e. 6.0 jogger is 7.0 runner). HTH.

Hi Kathy,

Thank you too! I was just making a list of itreads and trying to separate the spints, cardio/hills and Weights/Full body on my MP3.

Have a great night...going to be busy the rest of the evening.

Heidi
