AAAAbbbbbboooooooooo.....

So I didn't get in the NYC marathon in november. I didn't think I would because your first year is usually a wash, but it's official.

So, on to other things. I am going to be doing the Rock'n'Roll Marathon in Savannah on November 5th, 2011 AND I signed up for my fav race ever, the Rock'n'Roll Marathon in New Orleans in March 2012. I LOVE the Rock'n'Roll series and so I'm super excited about both races. I have never run a marathon and now I have two scheduled within 6 months. Time for training!!

Today I ran intervals with the Stoix group downtown, Stoix

Our workout was this:
Warm Up: .97 miles, 9:34, pace: 9:52/mi

Intervals:
Run 3 2 minute intervals with a 3 minute recovery
*I messed up but it's a 2 minute run with a 3 minute recovery which was: .54 mi, 5:01, pace: 9:30 mi
*.23 mi, 2 min, pace: 8:48/mi - recovery .23 mi, 2:45, pace: 11:33
*.23 mi, 2:01, pace: 8:56 - recovery .23, 3:00 min, pace: 12:51/mi

Run 2 60 second intervals with a 90 second recovery
*.13 mi, 1:00 min, 8:05/mi - recovery .13, 1:29 min, pace: 11:35/mi
*.12 mi, 59 seconds, pace: 8:02/mi - recovery .13, 1:32, pace: 12:13

Run 1 2 minute interval, 3 min recovery
*.22 mi, 1:59 pace: 9:05 - recovery .22 2:58 pace: 13:37


I went to the gym at lunch and I did:
5x5 standing should press 45, 55, 65, 75, 75 (fail)
5x5 push press 55, 65, 75, 85, 95
5x5 push jerk 65, 75, 85, 95, 95 (fail)

since I stopped lifting weights, my max 5 rep push jerk was 115 lbs... now it's 95 :(
but that's what happens when you don't lift for 6 months

I took a pic of myself this morning before running and it's bad, but i'll still show it... I look better in person
