16 Feb - Session 37

2027 GMT - Wednesday is my 2-a-day session...an easy run and an SnC workout. The run was good...cold this  morning with the temp at freezing. Calm and clear too with a beautiful moon. There are many benefits to running early in the morning. 6 miles today and the course I ran was pretty hilly. the hills were much steeper on the second half accounting for the much slower pace. I walked two or three times to keep my HR down where it needed to be (target 136 bpm). I finished faster than I thought I would.

I went by the gym on the way home from work for SnC. I worked though the easier of the  two routines I have. Some of the exercises are still pretty challenging though, particularly the ones that require good balance. Either I don't quite have it or my legs aren't quite strong enough to keep me steady. Probably a bit of both. It was a good workout though. Very satisfying.

Tomorrow I am going to the track to do speedwork with Paul. My first time doing this type of workout on a track. We'll see how it goes. Wish me well!
