75% health and fitness, 25% life and 100% me!
Training updates are back again! Last year it was half marathon updates which rolled right into olympic triathlon updates and all that stretched on for 5 months! This year it’s a scant two and a half months and we’re done. If your a keen Sweat Sweetly reader you already know from my 2019 season plan... Continue Reading →
So this week was an easy one in so many ways. Physically there wasn’t much to do with training and work wise we’re gearing up to do a big project where we REALLY have to have all our i’s dotted and our t’s crossed. So lots of meetings and we sold the house! Actually to... Continue Reading →
Do you ever cop an attitude about something, really dig in your heels, refuse to consider alternatives and then find out you were dead wrong? Yeah me neither except this one time… Well I wish I could say it was only one time but it happened one time this week and that was about training... Continue Reading →
This week really seemed like a running week and I was cool with that. I also got to musing this week about whether yoga might actually be bad for runner’s knee. Or I should say I mused more about whether yoga is bad for runner’s knee. I would love to know your feelings about that... Continue Reading →
It occurred to me this week I’m not sure I’ve done a single workout on the assigned day yet. I might have but it was purely by accident. This week was actually a lot of fun at work, in life and in training. Buy the time I reach week 8 in a 12 week running... Continue Reading →
You might remember last week’s post where I was supposed to get all my shiz together to start training. You might also remember that I did almost none of that. Yup, you guessed right that came back to bite me in the butt this week but I did end up doing a lot of that... Continue Reading →
The best part about peak week is the fast that it’s comprised of all your biggest training runs AND that they are the VERY LAST ones! That and you feel like a super hero. But I’ve also been tiered, wharfing and getting life stuff crossed off the checklist now that we’ve moved on job wise.... Continue Reading →
When you think about taking on a challenge weeks like this week are the ones that keeps you from doing it. It’s also what makes you sound crazy when you tell others about what you’re doing! I broke a trainee, They messed with the schedule (which turned out to be a good thing), it serious... Continue Reading →
I say halfway there in a 12 week plan because that last week is tapering and.. it’s super motivating! This week chugged along pretty nicely, a few days off for easter and some partially decent weather helped. But looking at next week’s schedule it’s about to get real so I really enjoyed this last week... Continue Reading →
This week wasn't especially busy at work I mostly drove around for specially stuff but we did work every single day and my tutoring load was pretty typical but it was starched out over more evenings. I’m also writing and article for Sad Runner about hacking your sleep but I’m well ahead here so no... Continue Reading →
