17: 2024 Weekly Run Down 46/52 – and the training continues

This week’s stats:

Running: 41 mi
Cycling: 5.8 mi
Bootcamp: 30 min
Strength: 60 min
Yoga/Pilates/Barre: 70 min
Warm up/Stretching: 45 min
Meditation: 50 min

I am linking up again for the Weekly Run Down with Kim and Deborah.

Usually, I take a week off running after a race, but since the 20-miler last weekend was “part of the training” and just a test race for the actual race that I am training for, there was no “taking time off” from running this week but continuing with the training plan.

Monday

  • 30 Min Sleep Meditation – Ross (6/25/24)

Luckily, Monday was a holiday (Veteran’s Day) and my rest day for the week and I took full advantage of it. I slept in, stayed in my PJs all day, and did nothing (other than drinking coffee, lounging on the couch, reading and blogging). I chose a long sleep meditation before bedtime.

Tuesday

  • 55 Min Easy Run + Strides
    • 10 Min Pre-Run Warm Up – Matt (5/21/19) — Road to 26.2
    • 45 Min Tempo Run – Robin (7/18/19) — Road to 26.2
  • 30 Min Strength for Runners – Rebecca (9/23/22) — Road to 26.2
  • 10 Min Focus Flow: Hips – Denis (12/19/23) — Personal Streak/Gratitude Jar

I completed an easy run with strides on the treadmill, and Tanja joined me for a 30-minute strength for runners class in the morning.

Wednesday

  • 5 Min Pre-Run Warm Up – Rebecca (7/17/24)
  • 10 Min Pre-Run Warm Up – Becs (5/21/19) — Road to 26.2
  • 60 Min Tempo Run at threshold pace
    • 60 Min Marathon Race Prep – Matt (7/18/19) — Road to 26.2
  • 10 Min Listening Party Yoga Flow – Nico (10/31/24) — Gratitude Jar/Personal Streak

A 60-minute run with 25 minutes at threshold pace. It was a beautiful morning and I took that run outside.

Thursday

  • 10 Min Morning Meditation – Chelsea (1/3/24) — Gratitude Jar
  • 30 Min Strength for Runners – Andy (9/23/22)
  • 10 Min Focus Flow: For Runners – Denis (4/10/23) — Personal Streak

I started my morning with a morning meditation in bed. What a great way to wake up. It was my cross-training day, so I did a strength for runners class with Andy (highly recommend! These strength for runners classes are fantastic) and a quick focus flow for runners.

Friday

  • 30 in Bootcamp: Upper Body – Jess (3/5/23) — Gratitude Jar/Fit Before Feast
  • 5 Min Cool Down Ride – Denis (11/14/24)
  • 10 Min Full Body Stretch – Kirra (10/21/24) — Self Gratitude
  • 30 Min Marathon Race Prep Run – Becs (11/15/24)
  • 10 Min Restorative Yoga – Kristin (3/19/24) — Personal Streak

I finally met up with the #BCBabes for a bootcamp in the morning – it’s been too long! – and we also did a full body stretch together for the Self Gratitude tracker (“Stretch with another Streaker”). Then I went on the treadmill for a quick 30-minute easy run. The training plan said 45 minutes but cut it a little short because of the extra bootcamp.

Saturday

  • 5 Min Pre-Run Warm Up – Rebecca (7/17/24)
  • 15-Mile Run
    • 45 Min Progression Run – Becs (6/13/24)
    • 30 Min Endurance Run – Matt (11/5/24)
    • 45 Min Endurance Run – Erik (10/15/24) — Gratitude Jar
    • 20 Min Metal Run – JJ (11/1/24)
  • 10 Min Cool Down Walk – Andy (10/21/24)
  • 5 Min Post-Run Stretch – Adrian (11/6/24)
  • 10 Min Restorative Yoga – Kristin (3/19/24) — Personal Streak

I was a little skeptical how this run would go after the race last week. 15 miles seemed short compared to the 20 miles, haha, but it’s still a pretty long run. Luckily, it was gorgeous fall weather – cool, but sunny – and my legs felt really good.

Sunday

  • 5 Min Pre-Run Warm Up – Rebecca (7/17/24)
  • 75 Min Easy Run + Strides
    • 30 Min 80s Run – Jon (11/16/24)
    • 30 Min 90s Run – Adrian (10/19/23
    • 15 Min 90s Pop Run – Jon (8/1/24)
  • 5 Min Post-Run Stretch – Becs (11/13/24)
  • 20 Min Restorative Yoga – Aditi (8/25/21) — Personal Streak/Serenity Sunday
  • 10 Min Kindness Meditation – Chelsea (10/16/23) — Serenity Sunday

It was another gorgeous fall day and even though I got out a little later than usual (I ran in the afternoon), I enjoyed this easy run a lot. I also joined the Streakers365 for Serenity Sunday – yoga and meditation – again.
