After work this morning I went for a short run; 2 miles; 4 min run/1 min walk; hips/low back/hip flexors soooooo tight from my workout Thursday and work last two days. Just got done foam rolling and stretching feeling a little better.

OH AND WE CAN'T FORGET!
The true athletes will be running the track today in Kentucky! I am rooting for General Quarters to win it all!
I hope everything loosens up for you after the stretching and rolling. I know it really helps me.
ReplyDeleteYou asked about what I use for hydration on long runs. Typically I either use a pair of handheld bottles (which is what I used this weekend) or a two bottle waist pack. I have a couple of Camelbaks, but I have found them to be a bit of a pain to clean and really hard to refill during a long run or race.
Sweet baby j!! Pilates/running after working the night shift?! You nuts??? I've tried - really I have, but I feel like total @$$!
ReplyDeletePlease tell me how you do that. I always chalk up the day after work as a rest day.
The run after work in the morning was only so I could stay awake for my class and let's remember here that I am not cranking out the miles like you, little Miss joyRuN! And as far as the pilates goes, this class is really something I want to do and only held on the weekend. Hopefully, after I am certified though I can teach pilates and then be a nurse part-time. You know take care of people who don't take care of themselves and then go to a job outside of healthcare where people actually care about their health! I'm not bitter, I embrace my Nightengale-ness!
