Weekly Summary

There has been a lot going on and I haven't had a chance to post for a few days.  Each week, I want to post a workout summary.  Here is the first summary.

Sunday - Tennis (Ball Machine) - 60 minutes
Sunday - Running - 2 miles - 18:49
Monday - Running - 3.1 miles - 30:10
Tuesday - Rest
Wednesday - Tennis (Drop-In Drills) - 90 minutes
Thursday - Rest
Friday - Home Eliptical Machine - Level 16/6.43 miles - 45 minutes
Saturday - Tennis (Drop-in Drills) - 90 minutes

Total Minutes (Rounded):  334

My eating went fairly well.  I basically made up the extra calories I consumed on Monday night and stayed on plan for the rest of the week.  I am averaging 1600 calories per day.

I did accomplish one of my goals today.  I ran 3.1 miles in 29:02.  My goal was to get below the 30 minute mark.  I think 27 minutes is definitely within reach now.  If you see me start doing 4 mile training runs, it means I have decided to go for a 10K sometime this Spring/Summer.

I need more tennis time.  I am completely changing some of my ground strokes and now my timing is off.  Hopefully this week, I can get some quality time with a ball machine.  I also need to mix in one of my 20 minute High Intensity Interval Training sessions on my home eliptical machine.  It is also time to take another shot at the 1.5 mile run to see if I can get below 11:20.  Finally, I need to hit my standard 45 minute eliptical machine workout a little bit harder.  Anything over 7 miles is a good workout.  My record is just under 8 miles.  My last several workouts have been around 6.5 miles

I am getting very close to the point where I want to weigh myself.  That is a bit scary.

I promise more interesting topics later this week.
