Today’s 43 was quick and fun!!! I did a straddle jump on a bench. Start by straddling the bench with your hands on the front of the bench. Jump both feet up on bench then back to floor. Repeat (x 43).

This is one of my favorites!!! I think I will do more of these jumps soon!
For my run today I did a pyramid!
OK – not that pyramid but it sort-of felt like it on the way up!!!
You can see that I increased my speed every 2 minutes (until I finally got to the top!) and then I decreased every two minutes on the way back down – much better!!!
This was fun and different for me – I usually try to get my fastest miles at the end of my run instead of during the middle so this is a good change.
1.5 % incline – 44:11 = 7 miles + cool down of 20 minutes for a total of 64 minutes (8.4 total miles)
I like to do different things with my speed (or incline) while I run – probably why I don’t get bored on my treadmill very often!!!
I can’t believe how fast spring break has gone!! Even though we just stayed home, we had a great week together!!!
This weekend, we are all about basketball!! My bracket took several hard hits but I still have a chance to win and it’s fun to watch some of the underdogs do really well!!!
Happy Saturday!
