After injuries and hitting "the wall" physically, I had started to feel like my time and efforts were wasted. Not to mention pain, sweat and tears~ yes, tears. I had no regrets, don't get me wrong, but I felt as though my goal was slipping away and I didn't like it.
I began following orders from my Coach, Chiropractor and Sports Masseuse to the "T". I decided to add a little low impact/high intensity regimen into the mix and the results...well, let's just say I ran 8 miles today at a consistent pace and finished ahead of my expected time. What a feeling~ I am "Back on Track"! 13.1....Here I come! Only 4 weeks left; bring it on!
***The regimen- Spin classes at the local gym 2 days a week for 2 weeks. In the 3rd week I added a spin class with a 1 1/2 mile "race pace" run on the treadmill before class. It is hard but effective. FYI- padded biking shorts are a must! Trust me.
