A recap of my weekly workouts from the previous week.

Weekly Workouts Recap

Right now marathon training blows. I haven’t been getting in the number of runs I would like to each week and my long runs feel pretty crappy. We say we are going to go a certain distance and usually cut off a few miles. This week we cut off 9 miles!!! 15 miles and 6.5 miles are two completely different runs. Our plan was to run the 10 mile loop and then the 5 mile loop on the trail. Well we stopped to get water at 6.5 miles and then just started to walk and didn’t stop. Pretty big fail.

This is my first time actually training for a race. I have done two half marathons and a 25k trail run and for those I just stuck to my regular workout routine – CrossFit, Crush classes, and some running here and there. And I did pretty well on those. Training for something is a lot harder not only physically, but mentally. I like to think that I would be fine just sticking with my normal workouts, but 26 miles is a long way and I don’t think that will be the case. I have one month left so I hopefully something switches and things start to fall in place.

Sunday – rest day/day after wedding

Monday – rest day/travel day

Tuesday – CrossFit WOD

5 x (3 front squats + 1 jerk)

5:00 AMRAP
30 double unders
30 KB swings (70/53)
3:00 rest
5:00 AMRAP
20 calorie row
20 goblet squats
3:00 rest
5:00 AMRAP
10 box jumps overs (24/20)
10 KB front rack lunges

I worked up to 110 or 115# and finished the WOD with 330 reps using a 45# KB.

Wednesday – Crush workout – total body

Thursday – Soul Cycle

Friday – training run

6.5 miles at 8:01 pace. We were planning on doing 15 that day. We obviously suck at sticking to our training runs.

Saturday – rest day

    So sorry to hear training is rough! Are you following a specific plan, or are you just winging it with runs scattered throughout the week?

      We started with following the Run Less Run Faster (FIRST) approach (I think that is what it is called), but then that kinda fell off the radar. Now we usually try to get one longer run a week and maybe a track workout. I work at a treadmill based HIIT studio so I try to do a class a week there too. Then I just mix in the rest with CrossFit and whatever else. I think I need to be definitely following a plan as winging it isn’t going so great right now, but it is hard to balance with CrossFit since I love that so much.

        I’m familiar with FIRST–I used that training program to train for my first marathon and loved the combination of runs and cross training. When’s the race? Running more will definitely be beneficial (as you know), and I can see how passionate you are about CrossFit. It may not be a bad idea to write down in advance a week of runs and workouts. That may help you zero in on training. If you have any questions regarding training, or need help writing up some workouts, let me know!

          I love that idea of writing down what workouts I am going to be doing! That will help me stick to the plan instead of just going by what I feel like doing each day. The marathon is exactly one month away! I will def reach out to you if I have any questions, thanks so much Beth!
