Training and Workouts and Therapy, Oh my!

My outlook calendar, between the hours of 8am-4pm is generally booked with meetings and lunches with a few hours in between to get work done and to update my blog and Facebook status. The hours before 8am-4pm were generally open and I would just be sure to get in at least a good hour of physical activity each day.

Now that I am training for a race in October, there are certain workouts that I HAVE to complete each day in order to build myself up to the mileage needed to finish the race. So, I am sure to schedule that time in each day. I have also added at least one visit with a personal trainer to my regime each week. Okay, so there is 30-60 minutes booked. Oh, and I have to take that spinning class on Wednesdays between 5:30-6:30. Don't forget that I am now working with a Physical Therapist at the Sport Rehab place on Tuesdays at 7:30. Oh, and I would be crazy to NOT get in at least 30 minutes of fasted cardio 3 or 4 times a week at 5am, what a great start to the day those workouts are. My doctor also thinks that Bikram Yoga will help me with my flexibility issues so put me down for an hour of that on Saturdays. And who can forget that on most Sundays, I will be doing Chalene Turbo Fire with Mari for an hour....AFTER my training run. Sundays are my long runs. Add in a few Races (5K and 10Ks) that I have registered for and I think I MAY have time to shower a few days a week.

Okay, it's not that bad but if it wasn't for my Blackberry, I'd be lost!

Lexy.
