My Priority

My goal for August is to stick to an 8-week 8K training schedule that looks something like this:

Week	Mon	Tue	Wed	Thu	Fri	Sat	Sun	Miles
1	Stretch & strength	2 m run	30 min cross	2 m run + strength	Rest	30 min cross	2 m run	6
2	Stretch & strength	2 m run	30 min cross	2 m run + strength	Rest	30 min cross	2.5 m run	6.5
3	Stretch & strength	2.5 m run	35 min cross	2 m run + strength	Rest	40 min cross	3 m run	7.5
4	Stretch & strength	2.5 m run	35 min cross	2 m run + strength	Rest	40 min cross	3.5 m run	8
5	Stretch & strength	2.5 m run	40 min cross	2 m run + strength	Rest	50 min cross	4 m run	8.5
6	Stretch & strength	3 m run	40 min cross	2 m run + strength	Rest	50 min cross	4 m run	9
7	Stretch & strength	3 m run	45 min cross	2 m run + strength	Rest	60 min cross	4.5 m run	9.5
8	Stretch & strength	3 m run	30 min cross	2 m run	Rest	Rest or 60 min cross	8-K Race	10

I found this training guide here. I signed up for an 8K run in Virginia Beach on September 29th. This is something I KNOW I can do but if I did it right now it would probably be a struggle. Tonight I am doing a strengh training workout and hopefully a little cardio. I may do 30mins on the treadmill to break a little sweat!

I am pumped!
