February 4-10 workouts: Race Training for #brm26pt2 #runblueridge #triadventuremultisport

It’s a New Month which means New Fitness goals! 🙂

I’m currently training for my 10k race up Mill Mountain in April as part of the Blue Ridge Marathon race series; along with training for a 4 mile obstacle course family run at Claytor Lake.

This will be my second time doing the Blue Ridge Marathon race series and my first time doing the Claytor Lake obstacle course. I will be focusing on strength, stamina, and training up and down hills.

I was sore for a couple of days, especially my left shoulder following my monday night boxing workout so I will not be trying any new classes for the rest of the training period. I was pleased with how my workouts went this week!
