7K walk at 9:00 am this morning. Now Iām going to do my weekly cleaning, which some might consider a workout by itself! (I love my place to be spotlessā¦ )
Just found this thread, I like it! Iām coming to the end of my marathon running career and hope to run my 50th marathon in October. I need 2 more. My plan is a 12 week block where I will run 1 marathon in 9 weeks time then my 50th in October. It will help to keep me on the straight and narrow
I have some hamstring trouble that Iām trying to manage. Iām just about to head out for 10k which I will do low & slow in the hope I donāt agrivate anything. I need to build some fitness and drop a little weight after a few weeks break.

Anyone else remember the teachers getting on to you for writing on the last line of the page?
This is my lower volume week because of work and I was in a rough area mentally friday so only 2 weight lifting sessions instead of my normal 3
Week 5 of running program. I didnāt run last week while I was on vacation, and will not do any running next week when Iāll be away as well, so Iām sticking to the week5 schedule until Iām back home for good.
Intermediate yoga program.
Day 27 and 28 rest ā¦not feeling well. Hopefully will get moving tomorrow
Had 3 days of rest this week and low on workouts
Got some pads in at the gym this morning with the wife, then she joined me for 100 burpees.
Just knocked out another 150 at the work gym before I start nightshift.

@JazzyS I can send you some of that good advice I got last week when I was crookā¦ rest up, get well, look after yourself
Stiff, but a good stiff. I have the urge to run again this evening but Iāll hold off, may go on the bike. Itās a good sign when I need to pull the reins on myself.
I need to drop some weight so itās low and slow & need to work on my diet after a fairly indulgent summer
Thanks friend. I am trying my best to rest and not let it mess with my head. Appreciate the wordsā¦I needed to hear em today

Too easy
Spin class. First in years. BRUTAL AS HELL.
Then strength training/ weightlifting class afterwards
Before noon, 150 zone minutes.
Love the attitude ā¦ Finishing July strong
Never tried spin class but always looks brutal. Way to go! A hell of a work out today
Iāve done a few before, but always remember my legs buckling and almost vomiting when I got off the bike previously. Nice to know I managed that then an hour of weightlifting and strength training on top (the dance studio has AC!!!).
FEEL SO GOOD NOW.
Aaahā¦thank goodness for that.
Glad it didnāt make you vomit today (kudos for getting back to it) and that class afterwards. hope you are treating yourself with relaxation after being a total bad ass!

250 done

Reflection
One of the key goals was more consistency. Despite some days off I feel that having 100/day to get done pushed me to do something where previously I would have found an excuse.
The goal was to do 100/day without missing and having to catch up. The majority of days missed were due to sickness and I only missed 2 other days due to not pushing through.
Trying to decide whether to keep going with the burpees or switch it up. Leaning towards another volume based body weight exercise.
