Today's Progress

I had an amazing workout today. I completed 4.56miles in a little over an hour. For me that was great considering that a month ago, I couldn't run or walk because of tendonitis. And on top of that my Nike+ sensor was playing out. I want to slap myself when I realize that I had been running myself to death, and it didn't show up in my data.

So I got in a great aerobic workout. I increased my running distance to an entire mile out of 4 miles. I did this by power-walking .25 mile and then running .25 mile until I had completed 2 miles. Then I power-walked at an increased incline for 2 miles to increase my endurance.

I also completed core and lower body work today. Here is the core routine that I completed today:

1. Floor crunches 3 sets of 50
2. Drawing-in 3 sets for 60 sec
3. Bridges 3 sets of 60 sec
4. Balance ball crunches 3 sets of 50
5. Rolling in 3 sets of 12
6. Reverse crunches 3 sets of 25
7. Plank 1 set of 60 sec
8. Side plank 2 sets of 30 sec

Then I completed hip adductors and abductors at 3 sets of 12 each (110lbs) and 2 sets of 12 squats (70lbs).

Of course, I now have cramps in my feet, but I feel great otherwise. (The pickle juice is ready.)
