Hi,
I've been lurking on this site for awhile with fascination. I work in the fitness industry and after reading here, I am humbled regarding both my fitness as well as my knowledge. Distance running is my acquired love. I did my first Boston Marathon this past April and I am a wannabe triathlete. I was a pure anerobic athlete when I was young being a cheeleader/tumbler and a sprinter. I'm going to be starting out very slow and will be needing some accountability. |

You should start up a log here. That way if you don't post in it with a workout, we can hound you about it. Plus, if you don't keep a log already (I suspect you do though) then it is great for keeping track of progress.

Okay, started off on the wrong foot by not being able to find one of my many watches to time myself. But, I integrated 800m speed bursts within my run based upon perception of effort. But, one of my main beginning goals is to re-establish consistency in my strength related workouts as opposed to being a cardio queen. My main focus will continue to be endurance training. I realize that comes with a trade-off in terms of overall strength. But, I'm hoping that this will help me maintain strength and prevent injury--faster times will not hurt either. I'm thinking that I will get more out of my endurance workouts or even achieve more with the same amount of training... So, here is today. My first goal is to complete a full warm-up. In the meantime, I will improv to round-out my workout. Weight control is also important. Don't need to lose, but don't need to gain. I am just shy of 5'1" at 102-105 pounds; 11-12% body fat. 11/18 Ashtanga yoga class 3 sets of 6,6,5, on Gravitron (-40, -30, -30) Tricep Dips 3 x 10 DB press 3 x 10 (25 pounds) Push-press 3 x 5 (55 pounds) Lunges 2 x 10 (15 lb) Bent Row 2 x 8 (55 pounds) Footwork on pilates reformer 4 mile run} |

Hey Kyla,
If you're going to run a workout journal (which is a great idea) you need to put it in the Workout of the Day section. Thanks, |
