Synny667 Posted April 15, 2013 Author Share Posted April 15, 2013 My heart sank today... explosion at the Boston marathon. My mother is now fearful of any run I do that is coming up. Why would someone do such a horrible thing?!?!?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mini Forklift Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 At least one of them is dead and the other has been caught. Terrible in every sense though, unbelievable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mini Forklift Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 I'm praying everything goes well and without incident at the London marathon, should be happening about now as it's on this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synny667 Posted April 20, 2013 Author Share Posted April 20, 2013 Can hope. Did my 5k today and managed to finish in 37-38 min range. Still good for working all night and doing my 10k training program. Took a lot out of me though.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synny667 Posted April 20, 2013 Author Share Posted April 20, 2013 Now I have a month off of races to focus on my running training. And hopefully it will be warmer. Forgot a long sleeve shirt to protect me and got so cold my muscles started to seize up.... Making arms a but difficult as they are sore and tired from warming up. Took me a good hour under 2 blankets and warm clothes to stop chilling...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mini Forklift Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Sounds like we are both battling with the cold! Definately cooling down here now, and this week has pretty much poured the whole time which has been crap. Hmmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synny667 Posted April 21, 2013 Author Share Posted April 21, 2013 Cold front moved through while I was at work and didn't know it. Last time I went to search for a jacket or a long sleeve shirt I couldn't find one so didn't waste my time to hunt one down. Won this little beauty today at the run so will be adding bike riding into routine. At this point I have no reason to be stuck on a machine at the gym to do cardio Really ready for some warmer weather but won't let it stop me from my training. Ready to see some of my fluff disappear! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synny667 Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 Felt really big and bloated during the run. I wish I could just get my diet tweaked so that when I get off work I am not starving and inhale everything in sight..... That last 2 hours of work is constant moving and lifting. I think I will pack a peanut butter banana roll up tonight for after work with a protein shake to see if that will help with the binging. Something has to give already.... BTW took 149th out of 290 and ran the 5k in 38:05 that is a 1 min and 13 sec better than my last timed run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mini Forklift Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 You finished pretty much in the middle and got a PB of more than a minute better than your last one? Great work ~ and you look like you are flying in your pic lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synny667 Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 actually my PB is 32ish but was not that cold and I had my team there cheering me on. Yesterday I was alone with my running program that ended at the 4k mark leaving me with 1k to push myself. Once I was close to the finish I found one last kick and hauled butt I wanted a better time than 39:18 lol. Also finding my stride is getting better too. Had a packet of Vega in hand just in case my banana wore off which it didn't thank goodness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synny667 Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 Day off work thank god!!!! I just got a full body massage and I feel so much better! Grabbing a vegetable bean burrito before I head off to bed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synny667 Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 Was enjoying my raw diet but damn was taking up most of my check buying my dirty dozen in organic and fresh fruits. Think I am going to cut back on the raw for a while until farmer's market is full of fresh produce. Just honestly trying to figure things out.

Mini Forklift Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Just in case you hadn't seen or noticed, I have created a new running section to the forum. I've gone through the General Fitness section and moved all of the running topics into there (that was painful and took ages haha), so would be cool to see you posting in there. Cheers MF.

Mini Forklift Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Yes I did notice and thought that was awesome! Haven't had a chance to read anything yrtNo probs, I had noticed there's a few 5km threads in there though. Haven't had too much of a chance to skim through all of it myself either, work has been pretty busy. But shouldn't complain about that I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synny667 Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 31:30 min running training on treadmill due to wet cold weather (supposed to snow....). Training goes as follows: 5 min warmup, 3 min jog, 90 sec walk, 5 min jog, 2 1/2 min walk, jog 3 min, 90 sec walk, jog 5 mins, 5 min cooldown. Felt pretty good running just my calves got tired and tight. Will wear my compression sleeves next time to help with circulation. If that doesn't help I will just have to invest in compression socks. Week 7 is what I am looking forward to since it will continuous running instead of interval training. Enjoyed a big bowl of cocoa rice crispies and almond coconut milk after the run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synny667 Posted April 25, 2013 Author Share Posted April 25, 2013 I got to lift today I got to lift today! Monday my knuckle hurt something fierce so I did all body weight leg work BLAHHHHHHHHHH so today since my knuckle feels fine I lifted and yeah baby LOVED IT!!!! Found another person wanting to do a show and was doing everything I could to talk her out of it because her heart and mind aren't in it for the right reasons and is setting herself up for failure and wasting her money..... She won't listen to anyone but her ex who is teasing and toying with her. Oh well. She did give me a compliment and said I am leaning out (yeah right!!!) I have put on not lost and as for leaning out..... nope! Gained a little in size in my butt and gut cause jeans not fitting right now. Need to really focus on getting cardio in and staying away from gluten and granola bars.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synny667 Posted April 26, 2013 Author Share Posted April 26, 2013 Wrote up everything I ate for a day it sounds like a lot but my stomach is telling me something totally different... LOL I may need to add in some extra calories somewhere or something. My training session felt awesome today including my running training. Drinking about 182oz of water. I think that might be a lot of water but oh well. I can tell quickly when I am behind on water intake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
