- I’m half way through Week 1 of my half marathon training plan. After looking at a bunch of different half plans, I decided to stick with Smart Coach – I figured it’s worked for me for my last two 10ks, so if it ain’t broke…..
- I don’t want to jinx myself but I’m showing signs of getting faster! On the plan for Tuesday was 1600 intervals and I actually saw times in the low and mid 9’s – definitely speedy for me! And I ran the last interval faster than the first. All-in-all a nice return to the track.
- I’m back to studying the ChiRunning DVD. I’m trying to break it down and concentrate on one “focus” per week so this week has been all about posture. When I get tired I start to slouch a bit, but I’ve noticed that if I concentrate on my posture it takes any pressure out of my lower back/hips. Next week I’ll work to incorporate the next “focus” – the lean.
How’s your week going?
Nice work on your new training schedule and on the speed. It’s awesome to be able to see measurable improvement. Keep it up!
My week is going pretty well. Feels good to be back out there.
Way to go Miss Speedy pants! Nice work. I am taking a chi clinic from the man himself at the end of March–very excited!
Nice work Michelle! You’ll reach your goal in no time. My first week of BHBB Challenge is gonig well…better than I actually thought it would. Really enjoying the change of pace. Also, Pea protein not so bad. 🙂
@Amanda – I’m so jealous! Can’t wait to hear all about your time with the Chi master!
ChiRunning sounds interesting. I’ve been working on my arms, trying to envision rubbing an immaginary ball in front of me, instead of clutching my fists and wasting energy.
Thanks for your comments recently.
Yeah, Kera is cool, eh?
I actually did a Blogger meet up in Shanghai last Nov.
I took a one day Chi running clinic which was good. They are all over the place. You may want to consider it.
