Boston Training - Week #7

Boston is 5 weeks away.  Where has the time gone?  I feel good about what I did this week...

Abs
Felt pretty good

Wednesday
Run - 5 miles with 5 x 800s on the track between 5:54 and 6:12
Walk - 1 mile
Elliptical - 1 mile
Weights
Felt that track was much harder than it should be.  I did it solo again this week due to the snow and miss my teammates.  I ended up trying to chase a fast guy around the track for all of my 800s.  I am sure he was annoyed by me by the end.

Thursday
Run - 6 miles outside with 10 x 30 seconds fast (6:00 pace) and 90 seconds slow (9:30-10:00 pace)
Felt - like I love this workout and want to do it every week

Felt - that I was happy it was a rest day

Saturday

Bike - 4 miles
Walk - 1 mile
Stairs - 2 miles
Elliptical - 1 mile
Felt good

Sunday
14 miles at 8:50 pace on the hills in shorts(!!!! - made me so happy)
Walk - 1 mile
Weights
Felt - like the hills were going to swallow me up

Weekly Totals:
Running miles = 43
Biking miles = 20 miles
Walking miles = 6 miles
Elliptical miles = 4 miles
Stair master miles = 5 miles
Weights = 3 days
Abs = 1 day

I have a half marathon (March Madness) next Sunday, so I will be not running as much this upcoming week.  The week after I'll most likely log a lot of miles before the Boston taper begins.

Here's to another great week of running and cross-training!
