My second week of training for the Diva Half Marathon was fabulous! I got all of my workouts & miles done according to plan. I ate well, focusing on real food & minimal processed food. I'm even trying to get back into the habit of tracking my food intake. (Two years of constant food journaling is tough & I took a much needed break.) I was able to add core work to my strength workouts as well.
You can see all of my workout details on my daily mile page. Here are the highlights:
Monday: 3 mile run including speed intervals
Tuesday: 45 minutes cross-training with strength circuits
Wednesday: 3 mile tempo run
Thursday: 45 minutes cross-training with strength circuits
Friday: 40 minutes yoga
Saturday: 6.5 mile run
Sunday: rest day
An awesome highlight of the week was meeting Mamavation Mom graduate, Shannon. Her husband has been stationed in North Carolina, and they had been planning a quick trip to Myrtle Beach before they get moved later this month. It was so awesome to talk about our health and fitness journeys while we walked around one of the shopping/tourist attractions here. (Excuse my crazy hair - it was windy!) Yay for getting extra steps in!
My training for this week will be similar, although I'll add a couple miles to my running workouts. And I registered for an 8k race on March 24th! It will be my first race longer than a 5k, and I'm looking forward to getting more race experience under my belt.

Good NIGHT. That is a lot of working out. You deserved that rest day!
