Here's how week 5 played out:
Monday 2/22: planned and actual - rest. On top of that, I had a sore/plugged ear since the prior Saturday and opted to go get it looked at. Ava begged to have her ear looked at as well. The nurse practitioner obliged, and the great mother I am said, "You know - monkey see, monkey do!" Lo and behold, her ear was infected, too. Good grief!
Tuesday 2/23: planned and actual - kettle bells! You'd think after writing last week that I need to get better about what we do each week, I would have actually written down what it was we did. But - I don't have what we did this might down anywhere, and for the life of me I can't remember. I promise I was there though!
Wednesday 2/24: I planned to run, but ended up having to pick up Ava because Chad worked late and then brought paperwork home with me. Tis my life. Always trying to find the balance.
Thursday 2/25: planned and actual - kettle bells! Love my Tuesday and Thursday nights! After warming up we did a set of 50 one arm swings (per side), 25 squat/press, 50 knee tucks on gliders, 10 half-Turkish get-ups (per side), and 25 slow mountain climbers (per side). Then we did a pyramid of swings and jump squats (20 swings, 10 jump squats, 19 swings, 9 jump squats, 18, 8, and so on). Then we did the first set again, but cut the numbers in half. It was a good one!!
Friday 2/26: rest. Fridays are always a wishy-washy day for me. I intend to workout, but then stay late trying to wrap things up and work and finally decided to just start my weekend! I am exhausted on Fridays!
Saturday 2/27: first double digit long run! I finished 10.73 miles. I would have ended up with over 11, but despite incredible February temperatures, there were parts of the path that I decided to run on still under snow, so I changed up my run. Overall, I was pretty happy with how the run went. The last mile was tough, but I stuck with a .1 walk/.9 run ratio. My goal was to stay between 12:30-13:00 per mile - and there were just a few miles that weren't quite where I wanted them. It feels bitter sweet to have 3 months of long runs left. I need the time to build up to marathon distance obviously, but those long runs sure can take a lot out of a person!

Sunday 2/28: I decided to go to a Sunday class at the Y. They don't run the classes in the summer, in the fall I don't get there much because of football, and so I don't get there often! I went to the 20-20-20 class that is 20 minutes cycling, 20 minutes kettle bells, and 20 minutes yoga. Usually. Sunday we did nearly 25 minutes of cycling, and then moved into the second portion, which lasted the whole last half hour. The Y just got some battle ropes (totally makes me think of the Biggest Loser) and so we spend the last 30 minutes in groups - half of us would do kettle bells, half would do exercise using the ropes (we were in 2 groups and within the two groups put into pairs). When we were doing the ropes one was coaching, one was doing the exercise - 30 seconds on, 30 seconds off. We switched twice, and then rotated a total of three times. (so kettle bells three times ropes 3 times). Another great workout!
