My recovery from my first half marathon is going well I can actually walk
without any pain. I only fell a little tightness in my left calf and some
tension in my right foot. These are all things I have felt before so I'm not
too worried. I am however, hungry often, which is kind of weird, I find myself
snacking like crazy. I'm not sure what that is all about, I'm trying to stay
with the healthy food, although after the race I celebrated like any other
Mexican would and had a burrito and Monday, I had a kids burger. :(
Some other news, my son who refuses to play any sports especially baseball
has elected to train with me, rather than play any team sport. So today will be
our first day on a run together. I'm not much of a coach, but I hope we can have
fun together doing something we both seem to enjoy. I will keep you
updated on that adventure.
I also did my first workout at the gym today, no running, but i did the
rowing machine, which I like, and the elliptical machine, which I don't hate
but not particularly love either. It was a good little workout, but not like
running. I am hoping to incorporate more cross training into my week, as I have
heard it is good to do so. This is what I'm hoping for.
Run 3-4 times a week
Strength train-2 times a week
Cross Train-1-2 times a week (Rowing, spinning, yoga)
We will see how this works out in between work, being a wife, mom, and cook!
