Sunday morning I went for a six mile bike ride. I don’t bike very often and am pretty worried about the bike portion of the duathlon coming up. Eek.
Also on Sunday we spent the afternoon with my family playing at the lake and on Dad’s boat. I took my turn tubing that afternoon, hanging on as much as I could while Dad whipped Kris and I around. I knew as I was tubing that I was going to be pretty sore the next day. I don’t often use my upper body in that way!
Sure enough, Monday and Tuesday my upper body was quite sore. My arms, back, chest, everything just ached. Maybe I should start some strength training?
I’ve been thinking about training in general now that I’m back at work. I think I might have figured out a schedule. I’m thinking something like this:
Monday – 30 Day Shred
Tuesday – run (possibly at 5am before I have to get ready for work – either that or after Kris gets home from work at 8:30pm – there is literally no other time during the day!)
Wednesday – bike (possibly outside or on the trainer indoors but most likely after Kris gets home from work in the evening)
Thursday – run
Friday – 30 Day Shred
Sat/Sun – run and bike on one day and rest the other day
Or, you know something like that. I need to make working out a priority though or I just won’t do it. See the last couple weeks as evidence.
