Time for another butt-kicking TRX workout this morning! Last week we incorporated some “cardio” into the workout. My calves were still feeling the jumping moves two days later! I am a little apprehensive of what’s on the menu today…
So I mentioned in my last post that the training plan for next month almost made me spit out my coffee when I opened it last week. Apparently my coach thinks I am back in full effect because he had no mercy when putting this plan together. Here are two of the workouts if you don’t believe me: 12 mile long w/6 x 60 sec surges @ 7:40 pace w/5 min easy between starting at mile 7; 2 mile warm up, 4 x 5 mins @ 7:25 to 7:35 pace w/4min easy jog rest between each, 2 mile cool down. Eek!
At least I know, my aerobic capacity is going to be right back up there after next month! On a less anxiety-inducing note, I was so excited to find FRESH strawberries when I hit up my local Whole Foods yesterday. The farmer’s market has started (there is always one from 4-7pm on Monday’s at the University Heights store), and I bought the last pint of organic strawberries. NOTHING beats fresh local strawberries, and the fact that they are organic makes it that much sweeter (pun intended). The boys and I finished off the pint in about two minutes!
Ooohhhhh Those workouts sound tough…love that!

Wow, your coach is kicking your BUTT!!!! I so know you’ll do it though, and rock out every workout like you do!
It looks like our farm is going to be in full swing for strawberries soon, I can’t wait!
I didn’t know about the University Heights Farmer’s Market, I’m going to definitely check that out!

My gym is going to start offering a TRX class next week – I can’t wait to try it! Those are some serious workouts your coach has planned for you, but you’re ready and you’ll do great!

Local organic strawberries! I’m going to have to wait another month for those here. My coach pushed me for a few weeks to get my sit spin lower for my skating test, and that really worked everything that’s involved in a low one-legged squat (which is a lot of different muscles!). Now that my test is done I’m picking up my off-ice exercise that I’d stopped for fear of overdoing it or getting injured before my test, and I’m feeling it.
