Today we worked in the weight room (it is on the board in there) and went for a recovery run where you were encouraged to find some hills. If you haven't already done so make sure you have given your parent's email address to either Claire or Kristen so our team parents can start organizing pasta parties and post race snacks.
For those that couldn't make it here is your workout and Wednesday's plan.
Tuesday
All- 2 x 10 leg swings, 40 push ups (sets of 10), 60 squats (sets of 12), and your lunges matrix (sets of 6) or make it weight room to see lift.
Finish with 20-25 minute recovery run (hills encouraged), 4 up hill strides and 1 minute of core and abs.
Wednesday - Choice day
1. 40 Minute run with 4 strides (2 backwards) - pace should be conversational meaning you can comfortably talk to a running partner.
2. 40 Minute cross train
3. Rest Day
Tip of the day: Runners who only run are prone to injury. Cross-training and weight training will make you a stronger and healthier runner. Low and non impact sports like biking and swimming will help build supporting muscles used in running, while also giving your primary running muscles a rest.
