![]() Thought I would jump on quick and let you all know, you being, whoever you are that reads this. I have set a new goal for myself for running. Well it is really two goals in one sooo part one is this: Run a total of at least 40kms a week. Part two is a more long term goal Run 21.54kms by August 15th Oh and also I have increased my run to a 10k run which I have done twice now before that were 6 and 8. Feeling frickin awesome but I think I still have a way to go so that I can get my recovery completed. Also I busted my knee up a bit jumping rope in the garage :/ Thanks for reading and if you have any tips training advice or just want to say you either are supporting me or hate me leave a message down below ;)

![]() So this is the run I have now started to do with my coworkers. It is between 4.9 - 5 miles. We ran this for the first time today and I am so proud of what my running team has accomplished. Our times were as follows 58:49 for me (Still recovering from hamstring injury) 1:00:24 For Ashley and the big guy Darren finished off at 1:01:24 (First time running this distance) WOOOOOO feeling proud and excited to have such a great team around me that is willing to push themselves and push me to do better.
Can't wait until this injury is something of the past and I can move on to a better place in my fitness. ![]() So in all the excitement of training, I pulled my hamstring. Nothing too serious but it has slowed me down but not held me back. Training is still going well but I think for now I will have to extend my eight week program to a 10 week program. That said, my running has slowly been increasing since my injury on the first weekend of my program starting. I have not gone for any runs over 6k at this time but plan on doing eight tomorrow. No new record time will be set in this run, its more just to test out the leg and see how I feel if I can push harder. Weight training is going great!! I am so glad that I have been able to incorporate it into my program and will shortly be adding yoga in on a few extra days when I have a chance to do so. Also I have not updated my diet yet so I will be posting it in the days to come once I sit and figure it out fully. I do have a program that I am using from Trevor Linden - Club 16 out of Burnaby that I really should get on, considering I am paying for it. The last thing to touch down on is my Muay Thai training and that has been nothing but amazing. A special thank you to all the people I have a chance of working out with at Stand Up Muay Thai for making me push harder every day. So that all being said, thanks for reading, any comments you have are welcome below, also for anyone looking to start training a little more explosively with sprints and running here is something to consider reading, an article on how to prevent and treat hamstring injuries. http://www.coreperformance.com/knowledge/injury-pain/hamstring-strain.html |
