EAT WELL
I had a week characterized by leftovers with more to go! I ended up with a lot of food so I still need to make some chicken and zoodles and finish up my salsa creamy chicken with cauliflower rice.
I have multiple races this weekend (1 mile on Saturday and all day 20k on Sunday) so I need to start carbloading on Thursday-bring on the rice!
SLEEP WELL
I got good sleep this week but don't feel rested. Basically, I've been having this issue that if my throat gets dry, I have a coughing fit. Since that happens at night, I wake up coughing and it disrupts my sleep.
I want to aim for 8 hours for sure. Lots of running this weekend and I need to make sure I'm ready.
EXERCISE WELL
Last week:
- Monday: Yoga recovery
- Tuesday: 3 miles +weights
- Wednesday: Cize abs
- Thursday: 4x400s
- Friday: rest day
- Saturday: 5 miles-2 miles at 5k/10k (9:30 pace or less). I'm going to try a 1:30/30 pace to see how it goes.
- Sunday: rest day-my piriformis is acting up so I thought an extra day would help
- Monday: Short weights and yoga
- Tuesday: 3 miles + weights
- Wednesday: Running strength + core
- Thursday: 3 mile run +weights
- Friday: rest day
- Saturday: Carlsbad5000-1 mile race
- Sunday: Carlsbad 5000 All Day 20k/Disneyland for Food and Wine
- Post spring break is always tough for students but I think it went well!
- I got a lot of dissertation work done this week and I'm almost to a point where I'm mostly done writing which is a miracle! I'm going to keep working ahead so during Dark Side I can actually take a break.
- Celebrating Easter was also so fun including a great bday party we went to and a big family brunch.
- This week I'm going to keep chugging away on the dissertation so I can have a bit of a break this weekend which will be greatly appreciated!
How was your week?
