Seems like I tend to focus on one over the other. At times I'm either a runner, or a cross trainer! I need to mesh them both weekly.
Yea DailyMile tends to intimidate me from time to time

Yah I am not sure who is right/wrong in that whole bodyrock situation so I just steer clear. Drama Drama!

Anyway good plan, so awesome you are doing ragnar CO, a goal of is to do a big relay someday!

Wow, I don't even really know what Body Rock is, but I feel like I already get plenty of drama at my workplace so I certainly couldn't handle it in the fitness world! I always swear I'm going to stretch....and cross train...and do yoga....and lift weights...yeah that doesn't really happen.

Kind of funny, as a triathlete I guess you really cross train most of the time. With my injury I've found it's easier to be a runner and let the swimming and cycling go. I love tris and won't give them up, but I have loved the simplicity of just running and not so many 2 a day workouts :)

Cross training is definitely the first to go and t...

Cross training is definitely the first to go and the last to come back. I'm glad you are feeling better and I hope you have a great time training for your Ragnar Relay!

Oh, totally on the cross training! You need it and...

2013-07-23T14:10:16.928-06:00

Oh, totally on the cross training! You need it and find you kind of like it while injured, but when push comes to shove with training time, running always wins, right?

Yes! All the time :) When my running is going we...

2013-07-23T14:09:19.309-06:00

Yes! All the time :) When my running is going well, all I want to do is run and I find it very hard to do something else. My strength training has suffered as a result and I am trying to commit to doing weights at least once a week for my current training cycle.

I knew the bodyrock was full of drama but I don't think it's professional of them to air it online. I was never a Freddy fan and hope Zuzanna can get a TV deal or something. My workouts have been out the window since I have been so busy with work stuff, but finally at a point I can run more!

Trust me on the hill repeats, you will want them!

2013-07-23T13:29:00.668-06:00

I always strength train, mostly because I've hired someone to make sure I do. I never could get into yoga or biking, so it just doesn't happen that often. I definitely will throw out other extras when I don't have to do them anymore!

I'm terrible about cross training and I keep s...

2013-07-23T12:36:57.997-06:00

I'm terrible about cross training and I keep saying I'm going to do better about it but then I don't. I think you've got a great plan in place to get you to Ragnar!

It's hard finding time to fit everything in. ...

2013-07-23T12:10:24.308-06:00

It's hard finding time to fit everything in. When I run lots, I don't cross train as much... when I concentrate on strength training, I don't run as much.

Sheesh.... your plan looks good I think.

Um, wow. I just spent way too much of my life read...

2013-07-23T12:01:59.814-06:00

Um, wow. I just spent way too much of my life reading the BodyRock drama...that's bananas! Luckily, I love my cross training (crossfit) so it never goes to the wayside, BUT I keep meaning to get back into a yoga practice...and I keep forgetting that one :)

Wow, that Bodyrock stuff is full of drama. I have...

2013-07-23T10:33:49.791-06:00

Wow, that Bodyrock stuff is full of drama. I have never done their workouts before. Sounds like a soap opera;)

2013-07-23T10:27:22.981-06:00

Daily Mile is seriously depressing when you're building back up on mileage. The worst is to compare it to last year! I don't recommend it.

2013-07-23T10:06:51.293-06:00

My cross training definitely disappears when injuries resolve. Ugh! I wish I didn't do that - maybe I wouldn't get as injured. I just love running so much....but running doesn't love me right now.
