Well the cold is rolling in and with that in Minnesota comes ice and snow, which means running outside on a trail will not always be possible….or smart. So its time to take my gym membership off freeze. This year it wasn’t that simple, in an effort to save some $$ (like $40 a month!) I’ve switched gyms! The biggest difference is in the ‘extras’ not the equipment and really the equipment is what matters in a gym right?
Now the problem with gym is running…I detest treadmills and really can’t do over 4-5 miles in a shot its just too boring. So its time to change it up. My goal for right now while I can still run outside pretty often is 1 class a week and 1 weights session a week at the gym and then 3 runs. The truth is, I shouldn’t ONLY be running so I’m looking forward to this winter as a time to build myself up and make me stronger for next season.
I think the classes I’ll focus on this month are back strengthening/stretching to counter act all this running in the cold, pilates and yoga. Then this winder as I run less I’ll do more aerobic type classes.
So what about you guys, are you starting to change your work out regimen?
thinking but haven’t landed on the plan yet. Don’t want to lose what I’ve gained that’s for sure!
