Weekly Roundup - Jan 27th

This was one of the hardest workout weeks I've had in a while.  I made good on my New Year's Goal to get back in the pool and managed to have a great workout.  I also tried a new class at our YMCA called Tabata and subsequently, could barely move the next day!  If you haven't heard of Tabata, it's a high-intensity interval training workout.  Add that to increased run/walk intervals (9:1) to try to improve my overall pace and this week was a killer!

On a fun note, we got about 3 inches of snow on Friday night which made for a beautiful landscape, but poor running conditions on Saturday morning.

I schlepped my behind to the gym and got comfortable with my treadmill for my long run.  And while long runs aren't my favorite, I got it done.  For some tips for managing long runs on treadmills, check out these ideas.
