For an active rest weekend Michael and I decided to get two long runs in. On saturday Michael, Colin and I Ran through the neighborhoods behind CNU. felt really good and set the pace most of the way. Towards the end I began to die and let Michael lead us in but managed to stay with him. It was just under 30 mins total and probably just over 3 miles. After Michael designed a good ab workout then we did some push ups. He had to finish with 12 clap push ups instead of 10 just to be a snot!
Then today we headed out again. We began with a run to Harris Teeter to return the movie I rented for SAO last night. From there we ran down Warwick to the Noland Trail. We ran the mile out and back the soccer team does in the pre season. It was a beautiful day and there were a bunch of people out jogging. By the end of the first mile my legs were done so we walked about 50 meters, then finished the mile back and took another short break. From there we managed to make it back to JR. I was proud of the kick I had at the end, but I need to learn to push my self through distance runs like that one, obviously I had enough left that I should have been able to hold it the whole way through. Guess it is just something I am going to have to work on. By the end of the semester I will be able to run that whole thing. The run took us 43:43 to run and was just about 4 miles. Thanks to Michael for pushing me as much as he did!
Now a little homework, dinner and chapter for the rest of my sunday. Planning on a good ab workout before bed tonight. Definitely a good way to spend my last free weekend before the start of the spring season.
