Silentish Saturday! – The Hungry Runner Lady

After I don’t exercise within the morning my eyes look sleepy till a minimum of 10 a.m.

I get actually excited when my 3 lb (significantly, 3 lbs) bucket of cottage cheese runs out for 2 causes:

1.  One much less dish that Billy has to do as a result of I simply use the container for my fruit and cc combination;)

2.  We go to Costco THAT DAY as a result of I truly bodily and mentally can not go a day with out it and you know the way a lot I am keen on my Costco journeys.

Working at my faculty whereas pregnant has unimaginable advantages.  The school is aware of that I like meals they usually are available saying, “does the newborn want a donut?”  Um sure, how do you know?

It labored its magic yesterday when a coworker was consuming pie and I mentioned, “gosh, I feel I’ll begin feeling actually nauseated if I don’t have a few of your contemporary selfmade apple pie with a crust that took you 2 hours to make.”  It labored and it was unimaginable.

Would it not be impolite if I despatched out a mass e mail telling them that I actually would love them to begin delivering some filet mignon to my door with a baked potato (further salt) on the aspect?

Have I proven you the shirt that my mother had made for Billy?  I didn’t even drive him to put on it, he selected all of it on his personal.

That is his put up bathe hair, for some unusual cause he takes a bathe proper after a run…we had been raised a lot otherwise, points like this one are going to make elevating a toddler collectively very troublesome.

So why has Billy been doing TWO HARD exercises in ONE day? From the Billy himself:

Ever since I began a brand new coaching cycle after the Dogtown Half Marathon I’ve felt as if I might push myself more durable. I began to steadily up my weekly mileage and I began operating 2 high quality days and a long term per week (along with my simple mileage) as a substitute of just one high quality day. After a number of weeks of doing this I spotted that I might do much more. A pair weeks in the past after a 14 mile long term within the morning, I went out on a simple 2 mile shakeout/restoration run that evening. I used to be amazed at how effectively my physique felt the following day and might solely attribute it to that second “exercise.”

Elite runners like Jake and coaches like Hawk over at Runner’s Nook have been speaking about the advantages of two arduous exercises in sooner or later for a very long time. The beauty of a two-a-day is that you could get two high quality exercises in and nonetheless “waste” just one relaxation/simple day to get well. Yesterday I did a Tempo Run within the early afternoon:

after which a brief pace exercise on the observe a few hours later:

For the reason that two runs have completely completely different functions and advantages (enhancing Lactic Acid Threshold vs. enhancing VO2 Max and Operating Effectivity) I used to be capable of full the second run on drained legs and after I completed, I felt drained, however probably not any greater than I usually do after one high quality exercise.

Doubling up in your high quality days or doing a brief shakeout run a number of hours after a long term is an effective way to spice up your efficiency and improve your restoration. In fact, placing this further pressure in your physique is hard and will solely be thought of should you really feel as if your physique can deal with it. I took a 15 minute icebath after my second exercise final evening and that basically helps. Have an ideal day.

I can be hitting up the elliptical after faculty in the present day.  I’m solely operating each different day as a result of I’ve heard and browse just a few issues saying that it’s simpler to get injured whereas pregnant and since I’m already an harm bomb I wish to play it further secure.

After the elliptical= Thursday evening = date evening = my favourite a part of the week.
