Happy Sunday! Hope everyone is having a relaxing weekend. We have had a great one so far, and Bobby and I are doing our long run today since we didn’t get a chance to do it yesterday, so this weeks stats don’t look quite as good with our run technically being “next week”.
My knee still bothers me after I run and stays sore, but it’s not unbearable, just tight. I continue to foam roll but have been slacking on my strengthening exercises.
I have been doing very well with my eating this week, except when I made homemade sugar cookies and icing….I may have had a few.
Sunday: rest
Monday: 6 miles
Tuesday: 45 minutes elliptical, upper body weights
Wednesday: rest
Thursday: 3 miles
Friday: 30 minutes stationary bike
Saturday: rest (long run Sunday instead)
This coming weekend we will do our longest long run of 13 miles, then start tapering for the Dumbo Double Dare in Disneyland!
QOTD: Do you always long run on the same day of the week?
Kristen @ The Smith Summary says
I usually do mine on Saturdays but if me or my husband has to work them it gets bumped to Sunday.
Heather says
I’m a Saturday girl, too!
Frank@The Fat Runner says
Yup. Sundays are long running days around here.
Heather says
Mine is usually saturday!
Laura @ Mommy Run Fast says
I always do long runs Saturday but now that we moved I’m finding all the running groups here to long runs early on Sundays… so I might switch to have buddies to run with, we’ll see. Great week!
Heather says
oh good luck!
Pamela says
My training plan has them on Sundays which has worked best for me so far.
Carson says
I long run on Saturday most of the time. I work one Saturday out of the month and have to punt my long run to a different day that week. This usually leads to a run that isn’t the best because my legs aren’t 100% recovered, but at least I get it in!
KristyRunsKato says
I like to do my long runs on Saturdays, it allows me to rest and relax as needed on Sunday! This Saturday I volunteered at the IronKids triathlon all day and had to move my run to today. It worked!
Tara@PNWRunner says
I don’t really have a running plan. My runs depend on how I feel. If I feel like running 10-13 miles I will. It just depends on the day and the heat too!
