After last week’s pull-back week, we’re back to regular training this week and we’re adding intervals and more miles again. I’ve been feeling a little fatigued this week, but that’s to be expected. The body is getting used to the increased workout load. I am not too worried about it (and I took a couple of extra naps).
Monday
- 5 Min Pre-Run Warm Up – Matt (5/14/25)
- Team Wilpers Intermediate Marathon Training W7R1 | Intervals
- 75 Min Long Run – Susie (12/6/25)
- 5 Min Post-Run Stretch – Susie (7/29/26)
- 10 Min Evening Commute Meditation – Chelsea (12/9/25) — Total Request (Self) Love
- 10 Min Restorative Yoga – Nico (8/31/26) — The Streak
This morning I hopped on the treadmill for some intervals for breakfast – 3 x 0.5 mi @ half marathon pace. I wish the treadmill didn’t have an automatic cool down setting after 60 minutes. I know, 60 minutes on the treadmill is a long time, but some of us have to run… longer. Haha. I also had to hurry to get to work, so a quick stretch afterward had to do.
I had to postpone yoga until the evening.
Tuesday
- 20 Min 80s Ride – Denis (8/7/26) — Streakers Request
- 30 Min Advanced Beginner Pilates – Ash (8/21/26) — AB Pilates
- 15 Min Yoga Flow: Floor Poses – Anna (2/14/26) — Total Request (Self) Love/The Streak
I set my alarm a little earlier this morning, so I could do a 20-minute 80s ride for the Streakers Request tracker before meeting up with #BCBabe1 Lindsay for the final class of Ash’s Advanced Beginners Pilates Program. It was good. Nice and slow. I finished my morning with a yoga focus flow.
Wednesday
- 5 Min Pre-Run Warm Up – Matt (5/14/25)
- Team Wilpers Intermediate Marathon Training W7R2 | Tempo Run
- 75 Min Classic Rock Run – Matt (2/27/25)
- 10 Min Lower Body Stretch – Adrian (9/20/23) — Total Request (Self) Love
- 10 Min Savasana – Kristin (10/26/22) — The Streak
I did not want to do the tempo run this morning. I am writing this out lest you think I jump out of bed every morning excited to run. That is not the case, although I will say that it’s always fine once I get started (and I know that by now).
I went over to our neighborhood gym at 6 am and the lights were off. Nobody was there (side note: it was a full house on Monday morning). Anyway, I got my tempo run done. 1.5 miles warm up – striders – 4 miles @ marathon pace – 1.5 miles cool-down. The only thing that bothered me was that my treadmill pace was set higher than the prescribed pace, but my Garmin barely registered the prescribed pace. I know this is how it goes, even if you use “indoor run“ setting (always trust the treadmill over your smartwatch!), but man, it bothers me. You think they would have had that worked out by now.
Thursday
- 10 Min Barre: Core – Hannah C (3/15/26) — Streakers Request
- Team Wilpers Intermediate Marathon Training W7R2 | 4 mi Easy Run
- 20 Min 90s Rock Run – Jon (8/4/26)
- 20 Min 80s Run – Jon (12/23/25)
- 5 Min Post-Run Stretch – Joslyn (9/9/26)
- 10 Min Restorative Yoga – Kristin (11/8/23) — The Streak
Not a super-fan of Hannah C, but her Barre core class was actually pretty nice. I also had a 4-mile easy run on deck. Strangely, our community gym was packed again this morning. Luckily, one of the treadmills was available, and I didn’t have to wait (because I was already short on time).
Friday
- 45 Min Bootcamp – Callie (5/9/23) — Streakers Request
- Team Wilpers Intermediate Marathon Training W7R5 | 3 mi Easy Run
- 30 Min Usher Run – Chase (4/28/21)
- 5 Min Post-Run Stretch – Matt (7/15/26)
- 10 Min Savasana – Nico (8/31/21) — The Streak
I met up with Lindsay and Sherry this morning for a 45-minute bike bootcamp (bike + strength). It had been a while, and I really hope to do bootcamps again more often. I also had a 30-minute easy run on deck.
Saturday
- 20 Min Soundtrack Strength Club – Callie (9/19/26)
- 10 Min Full Body Stretch – Callie (3/7/24)
- 15 Min Chair Yoga – Aditi (5/2/24) — The Streak
Lindsay organized a Streakers365 swarm workout this morning, and I was happy to see so many familiar “faces” on the leaderboard, including #BCBabes Kristin and Sherry, and Michelle. :) I would have also done my long run today, but I had other commitments in the morning and switched it to Sunday. The only other thing I managed was a chair yoga class in the afternoon.
Sunday
- 5 Min Pre-Run Warm Up – Matt (5/14/25)
- Team Wilpers Intermediate Marathon Training W7R4 | 12 mi Long Run
- 90 Min Long Run – Susie (7/29/25)
- 30 Min Usher Run – Chase (4/28/21) — Streakers Request
- 10 Min Foam Rolling – Hannah C (2/24/22) — Total Request (Self) Love
- 20 Min Restorative – Anna (4/20/21) — The Streak/Serenity Sunday
- 10 Min Body Scan Meditation – Aditi (3/29/22) — Serenity Sunday
I had 12 miles on deck today and I had a bit of a hard time getting myself out the door, but once I got going, things were just fine. I felt good for most of my run, although I was on the struggle bus for the last two miles. My legs were just tired, but the foam rolling class that I picked instead of a stretch was really good. I also gobbled up this post-run breakfast (scrambled eggs with cottage cheese, spinach and tomato, chicken meatballs and a bagel).
I joined the Streakers for Serenity Sunday – yoga and meditation – again in the afternoon.
