Running "Mud on the Mountain", Week of 8/26


Great news, I've cleared November 3rd's "Mud on the Mountain" race at 7 Springs with my Sports Manager, signed up & paid! I've been looking for something else to actually train for so am super stoked about this race.

I have a few friends also singed up, including my brother in law, so if you're thinking about doing it, let me know! It's a 7ish mile run with 20 obstacles. I'll be tailoring our morning workouts to help me train for the race and the obstacles on it.

If you've been following the P90X schedule we have been working on, then you know last week was the end! The plan is to take this week as somewhat of a 'rest week,' mixing in the Spartacus workout on Tuesday & Thursday. We'll also do a core workout Wednesday at 5am, and I may show up for spin just a bit early to do some bench press & pull ups (got to keep up the intensity now that Mud on the Mountain is in the future).

We will break into the "Insanity" workout in about two weeks. For now, here's what this week looks like.

Monday -LA Fitness @ 5:45am class
Tuesday -*LA Fitness @ 6:45 pm, Rivers Club
Wednesday - LA Fitness @ 5:45 am, Rivers Club @ Lunch
Friday -NO LA Fitness @ 5:45 am -Plan on a sub
*I will ride all classes at Zone 2 pace unless you see an *. Remember, just because I'm at Zone 2, doesn't mean you can't go harder (just make sure it's Zone 4 and not 3 if you do!)

This Weeks Plan (August 13-18)

Sorry for not posting last week. Here is this weeks plan! We are almost finished with the P90X routine and the plan is going to be to move onto Insanity next! We may take a week off, then do a week of Spartacus 2.0 before starting, but details are on the way.

Awesome Salsa Recipe
On a side note, if you're looking to make a killer salsa for your next picnic, give this a try (I had it today and it was awesome). Cut up small cubes of avocado and mango, mix it up with some fresh cilantro (and add some jalapeno if you want a kick). That's it, delicious!
