AM-  Got in 2 sets of my curcuit.  Leg is feeling better at the moment.  The pain was above the knee in the quad mostly.  After Sat run it was below my knee and both on the left side.  I think since I changed up my stride that is where the tightness was.  And its feeling better.  How I changed up my stride was just doing alot more little ones on all the downhill portions.  That felt better on the quad.  I so I am guessing it was hitting the calve more. Argh!!  But its feeling better we will see how it goes tonight.

Planks 1:30 x2

Leg lifts 10 x2

Side leg lifts 10 x2

Toe raises 30 x2

Toe walks 30 x2

Flamingos 1min x2

Walking lunges 20 x2

Wall sits 1min x2 had a good burn again.  Not as bad as last week.

 

PM-  Got a run in at the club house.  Used the treadmill.  It wasnt to bad.  My left leg was feeling better and loosened up enough for me to attempt a speed workout.  So kicked it up to my mile speedwork of 6:11.  It was good to get in a full mile.  Took a lap to recover and then went to do a second.  On this one the leg was struggling alot and decided to no push it to much more.  And drop it to a 7:30 after about .30 and went a bit at that pace.  And decided that was good enough after I hit 4 miles.  So overall this run wasnt what it should be.  But felt good to get in a good fast mile.  Will see how things feel tomorrow.  Warm up pace was 8:30.

Your profile picture says it all. BEASTLY! I think you have about as much muscle mass in your right leg as most of us do in our whole body haha

Wall sits are the devil.

I can't wait to see how all of this training works for you at St. George.

Mark, good job keeping after it. Your going to be an animal come SGM!

Commando- LOL I hope not. I need to slim down yet want to maintain some mass.

Mike- Oh they are burners.

Paul- Thanks that is the goal. To get more balanced.

Dale- I can see it helping. Mostly in the longer or faster runs. Core strength is so important.

Kathie- We are so looking forward to it. Its a great race and will be a great time. I keep telling the wife if I am not ready she will have to run my legs.:)

MikeW- I sure hope so. After my last long run I was starting to doubt some.

Nice Mark.

Do you ever bike with Kristi?

Hope the tightness goes away quickly for you. :)

From Rhett on Mon, Jun 15, 2009 at 19:37:38 from 170.215.58.122

He Beast, start running some more. I want you to be there with us in Boston.

From Rhett on Mon, Jun 15, 2009 at 19:38:22 from 170.215.58.122

That was supposed to say "Hey Beast", but He Beast might work as well.
