Monday
Walked, and walked, and walked. Magnificent Mile in Chicago for lots of shopping! Oh Michael Kors how I love ya!
Tuesday
Lots more walking and making the day long trip home.
Worst part about living where I live.
Its a challenge to travel to and fro anywhere. But I was happy to be home if in fact they were making me leave Chicago.
Wednesday
Gym
35 min on the treadmill; walking of course
Row - 1300m
Some walking of laps around the indoor track
100 Weighted ball sit ups
Thursday
1 hour Step class
Oh how I have missed Step class! They started the class back up early September but I didn't want to interupt my running schedule or risk soreness, so I didn't return until this week.
I just love Step class!
Friday
Nada
Saturday
Just about 6 miles on the treadmill; still staying off the pavement this week
LOTS of weighted sit ups, push ups using stability ball and planks
Felt SO good to run again! Legs feel great!

Sunday
2 hours at the gym
1 mile warm up on the elliptical
2000m row
Weights: back, bi's and tri's
In between sets I either did 25 fast jj's, or sprinted around the track OR in some cases before doing the sprint or the jj's, I would do a 2nd set of some sort of alternating weight movement.
Stretching
So many crunches
Cooled down with 2 miles on the elliptical
***************************************
I have a couple of blog posts I have to write, obviously the race report and a couple of others with thoughts on a few things from Chicago and for going forward.
I learned a lot about myself in Chicago
1) I am still highly competitive
2) One should ALWAYS run their OWN race
3) I'm not quite done yet with achieving some goals I thought I couldn't achieve, but now know I am NOT ready to just lay down and let those go...
