March 31 - April 6

Monday

30 min. swim.

Tuesday

8x100 on the track, followed by weights (strength). Tired.

Wednesday

Was going to do some sort of cardio, but I screwed up my legs yesterday. The top sides of my thighs ( Rectus femoris according to wikipedia) which hurt mildly yesterday, were full of knots and just generally in terrible shape. Heat, massage, rest...

Thursday

30 min swim and weights (endurance). Legs seem okay, though still healing. Probably be fine to go on a run tomorrow.

Friday

laziness. no workout.

Saturday

I ran for about an hour and Charlie did sprints. Then we did a free weights workout (strength). Both of us are feeling pretty good, so I think we'll start moving up on weight and reps on the strength and endurance days, respectively.

It's been a month since the marathon, and I'm lamenting my loss of running skill/strength/endurance/etc. I think a better plan than these long, meandering hour long runs is to do shorter, more controlled runs where I concentrate on running well.

Sunday

3 mile run. Felt pretty good.
