Tabata

Today I did a tabata session with my trainer...WOW! For those of you who don't know what it is, you do 20 seconds of exercise of a large muscle group (lunges, squats, pushups, core, etc.) and then rest for 10 seconds...but you do this 8 times and as fast as you can!!! I honestly thought I wasn't going to make it a couple of times. You do get a 2 minute rest after you complete your 8th 20 second interval.

If I can move tomorrow, I have a 4 mile run. Working my way back up so my long runs for the next four weeks are 6, 7, 8, and then 9 miles. 9 miles?! That's over an hour and a half of running! Insanity, but man do I love it!

More snow on the way, this needs to end so I can get back to running outside!!!
