Half Marathon Training Week 8: 9/1-9/7

Here's a recap of last week's workouts:

Monday 9/1 - 4.5 miles on the D&R Canal trail.

Tuesday 9/2 - Rest. Went to the US Open. Check out my blog post here.
Wednesday 9/3 - 40 minute tempo run.
Thursday 9/4 - 3 mile run plus a little strength training.
Friday 9/5 - Tried PiYo Core for the first time. Some of the moves are tough! I like it though.
Saturday 9/6 - Yoga in the morning. It was my first experience doing yoga outdoors. Yoga is hard! It's even harder when it's hot and humid out. I was sweating through most of the session! 
Sunday 9/7 - 10 mile run with a local Moms Run this Town group. It was great meeting more members and nice running at Mercer County Park again!
Also did a short hike with the fam. Hike was cut short due to seeing lots of poison ivy by the trail.
Another decent training week for me. I got in all the runs I needed and got in a PiYo workout along with Yoga, so I am happy with the week. I am starting to like PiYo and yoga. I hope to do more to get better at it. At yoga I was off balance quite a bit, but I'm sure it will improve once I do more. I'm looking forward to trying more PiYo this week!

How was your week?
