I've been doing pretty good with my New Year's resolution in listening to my body and not running when I'm hurt. I haven't run since Saturday and plan on taking one more week off. However, I do need to listen to my body more, and today, and yesterday, too, although I didn't listen then, it's telling me to rest. I feel tired and beat up. I might even take another rest day tomorrow. Two rest days in a row? Gasp!
I've been doing a lot of strength training and Insanity again. The other day, I even did over an hour of cardio - 30 minutes on the stairmaster (Holy shit, this apparatus is scary!), 10 on the ellipitical (before I got bored to tears), and 25 on the bike. (This workout had me ravenous and eating like a horse all day!) I've been doing a lot of doubles, two workouts in one day. And my body is feeling it. I'm trying to keep my fitness in prep for a 10K coming up next week.
But today, and tomorrow maybe, I shall rest. I'm sure my body will thank me for it.
