I was able to get up and get out the door by 6:30 this morning and oh what a glorious feeling! I ran out to the T in the road and then back to the house, average pace was 8:50 with my total time being 30:10 and my average HR at 150, a little high for that pace but I'll take it. My calf felt good on the way out but on the inward half it started to stiffen up pretty good but I didn't have to stop so that is a plus. I then jumped on the elliptical for a 10 minute warm up and then I ran the contenders course with resistance up to 5, which is 20 minutes, and then I finished up with another 10 minutes to cool down for a total of 40 minutes. I then did my lower body weight training and then I called it a morning, a pretty good workout and I was feeling it towards the end. My plan is to get at least an hour of training split between the elliptical and running, I would rather have the bulk of it be running but I don't think my calf will let me do it as of yet so I'll take what I can get and then go from there. Today I was able to get 70 minutes total so I'm on the right track!;) See ya tomorrow.
