Tomorrow I will post more in detail about the race, but I figured I might as well continue with this one more week. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve been following me here<\/a> this shouldn\u2019t be any surprise, but for the rest of you and for my posterity, here is how last week went.<\/p>\n

Monday: 4 mile run and yoga<\/p>\n

Check and check!\u00a0 Not the greatest run – my headphones died so I had to find backup headphones so I got out late, it was HOT by then, my toe started bleeding for no apparent reason on the run, and I was almost late to work, but ya know, I got it done.\u00a0 Yoga felt good after work that day!<\/p>\n

\"\"Tuesday: 30 minute tempo run<\/p>\n

Check, sorta. \u00a0 My toe was hurting still so I wore my older, larger shoes.\u00a0 They didn’t hurt my toe, but since they were pretty worn out, I definitely felt each step and couldn’t push myself so fast.\u00a0 It was almost more of a regular run than tempo, but again, I did the miles.\u00a0 Was gonna yoga after work, but I had to go to the Yelp party, so I never got time.<\/p>\n

Wednesday: yoga<\/p>\n

Check!\u00a0 Ah, look, there is my yoga.\u00a0 Was a nice day off as well.<\/p>\n

Thursday: 2 mile run and yoga<\/p>\n

Check and check!\u00a0 After all that training, I finished this and went – uh, ok, my warmup’s done, now how far do I have to go?\u00a0 Felt weird only doing that short of a distance (but kinda good).\u00a0 I pushed myself a little harder than normal and felt fast – though I was still wearing the old and crappy shoes because of the hurty toe.<\/p>\n

Friday: Rest\/Travel<\/p>\n

Check!\u00a0 Packing was the most strenuous thing I did that day.\u00a0 I pretty much got eaten by the hotel bed around 9pm, which was great, because I had to be up at 6am!<\/p>\n

Saturday: HALF MARATHON!!!<\/p>\n

Check!\u00a0 I’ll go into this more tomorrow, but lets just say I know why they tell you to not do 13.1 miles before the race – if my 12 last week had been this brutal, I might have reconsidered!\u00a0\u00a0 But – I got through it and though I didn’t beat my goal time, I certainly got close!<\/p>\n

Total week 12 mileage 22.1 (running):\u00a0\u00a0 (plus 1-2 miles of walking)<\/p>\n

Now what happens?\u00a0 I almost feel lost without a rigorous running schedule, but I’ll keep myself busy and make do.<\/p>\n

\"\"Week 13 – the week after!<\/p>\n

Monday – 30 mins DDR and yoga in the morning, bike ride after work<\/p>\n

Tuesday – weights in the morning, roller skating at adult night after work<\/p>\n

Wednesday – yoga or off<\/p>\n

Thursday – 30 mins arc trainer and weights after work<\/p>\n

Friday – 30 mins DDR and yoga in the morning<\/p>\n

Weekend: epic bike ride, weights at the gym<\/p>\n

This is all subject to change for any reason I damn well please, because this week is about making sure my poor little knotted up muscles get stretched out and used in different ways besides *poundypoundypoundy*.\u00a0 I hope everyone enjoyed\/tolerated these updates, they really helped me out!\u00a0 For now, I will put away the weekly update until I get closer to something specific I’m training for…<\/p>\n
