workouts 2/3 – 2/9

by Danica on February 9, 2013

I really don’t have much to say about this week’s workouts except that it was a great week!  I ran 13 miles, which is *enough* but not too much for this point in the year (less than a month before training starts!), and I thought I did a great job of mixing in a lot of variety with a necessary amount of rest.

Miles ran so far in 2013 –> 75

Wow, lots of variety this week! I tried a yoga routine I found on Pinterest, but it wasn’t really relaxing nor did it feel like a workout. I’m thinking of starting Yoga Meltdown again too since that one really feels like a good workout. Thanks for the reminder :)

I just love that yoga video, and I probably sound like a broken record about it because I’ve said that so many times, but it’s always good! You’ll have to give it another go :)

Some weeks are always going to be better than others, but all you have to do is just do the best you can, girl!

thanks! I have to change things up all the time or I’ll get bored with it, which is obviously not motivating in any way :)
