Day 30 and 31, Wednesday Feb 12 and Thursday Feb 13

Day 30 and 31, Wednesday Feb 12 and Thursday Feb 13

Wednesday was major leg day. I have to do it mid week because my legs are sore from running on the weekend. In fact I know that during training, a lot of runners do not weight train their legs, but I would rather weight train than do hill training, which doesn't mean I won't do any hill training, I just will do both. My leg day is filled with squats (weighted), machine extensions, lunges (weighted), I don't even know what the one machine is called, and dead lifts. I alternated with abs, and did a 20 minute warm up on the elliptical.

So Thursday was technically a "rest" day, so light exercise day on my challenge. I did a 1 hour walk in Edmonton at the West Edmonton Mall. I made it around top floor, once and bottom floor twice. I noticed a couple things about this choice today. The mall is full of scents mostly perfume and food court smells, the cookies by George is almost overwhelming. The mall is also hard to walk as fast as I would like because I get caught behind families, and shoppers. The mall is distracting because there is so much to look at. But I got my exercise in, and then I did the mall once more because I had my shopping to do! and the upside to all that is you get easy access to bathrooms, coffee, and Yogun Fruz!
