Change of Pace

So after a long weekend of working out you would think I would just want to sit and relax. I was in no hurry to get home and even stopped at the grocery store for some needed shopping. After getting home and eating some dinner I really felt guilty that I hadn’t done a workout today. My legs are supposed to be sore and tired, I am supposed to enjoy this day off. Well that was just not the case today. After sitting around watching a little TV I decided I would head to the gym.

I really didn’t feel like biking, surprise, even running or swimming didn’t sound to exciting. I decided to jump on the elliptical for some good old fashion cardio. After 30 minutes and a really good sweat I headed down to the weight room to work my rotator cuff exercises. Since my shoulder has not been bothering my when I swim, I have really neglected these workouts and try to get them in whenever I can. The change of pace workout was great and now I am looking forward to getting back to training for my races.

I can't believe you can't just let yourself enjoy a day off! You are totally hard core!

Nice work mixing it up. I'm sure your body appreciated a little change. Nice job getting those shoulder exercises in too! Don't neglect them too much or you'll end up right back where you started!
