Week Summary

Mon - AM: 60 min Iller creek. 30 min strength and stretch. 

PM - 60 min upper body strength and tempo 

Tues - AM: 105 min Iller creek 5 min stretch
Rough morning...I may be pushing a little too much considering I raced on Saturday. Stomach issues and creaky legs. 

Wed - AM: needed but unwanted rest

PM: 30 min lower body strength, 30 min bouldering 

3 x 12 squats @ 135 (first time doing weighted squats for a very long time)
3 x 12 hip abduction
3 x 12 hip adduction
3 x 12 dorsiflexion 

Thurs- AM: 90 min ill creek trailhead to trailhead
This run made me question why the heck any runner would ever do weighted squats. After my race on Saturday I realized a few things:
1- I need to run on runnable terrain more often. I love to climb and descend but I don't often run on "flat" surface. 
2. I am still prone to injury hence more lower body strengthening is required. 
3. I am very much human. 

PM: 30 min bouldering, 30 min upper body strength

3 x 12 cable chest press @ 205 
3 x 12 one arm pull ups on assisted machine (40 lb assist)
3 x 8 negatives (pull ups with emphasis on eccentric phase)
3 x 12 military press @ 100

Fri- AM: more needed rest. I am anxious to be fresh again so I can really train hard. 

Sat- AM: 100 min. Iller creek

Sun- AM: 90 min. hike in iller creek

Good week, ready to hit it hard next week! It took a little while to feel fully recovered from last weeks marathon but I am there.
