I decided to change my running routine yesterday. I implemented some fartlek training into the mix. This is what I did:
1. I wear a training watch that uses a "countdown" 60 seconds to zero 2. I started my running route with fast paced walking for 1 min. 3. At the end of one min. the alarm on my watch sounded, and I ran as fast as I could for 1 min. (until my watch alarm sounded) 4. When my watch alarm sounded I slowed down to a fast walk. I maintained this method for 2 miles. 5. At the halfway point, I stopped and did 3 x 15 Pushups and 3 x 15 situps.
It was a tough workout for me. Towards the end of the training rountine my quads started to cramp. I feel pretty good this morning. I'm not sore, but I had a little difficulty waking up this morning.
I also went over my RDA for the first time in a few weeks. My In-laws were over last night, and I slipped a little. Not too bad. I feel good. I feel happy.
