January Stats & February Goals

Although the calendar says January it sure didn't feel like it.  Very mild, hardly any snow, I love it!

January Stats:

Pilates Reformer (N2U CT Challenge) = 4
Pilates Ball (N2U CT Challenge) = 3
Spin = 4 / 64 miles
Swim = 13 / 12 miles
Yoga = 3
P90X = 3 (Chest & Back (1), Shoulders & Arms (1), Legs & Back (1), Abs (2))

Total Miles = 78
Total Time = 31.5 Hours

2012 Nike Go the Distance Total / Goal = 12 miles / 200 miles

I am bummed that I ended up with a nasty head cold the last 3 days of the month.  I was hoping to make it through the winter without getting sick.  No such luck. 

I was signed up for a Foam Roller class but it was cancelled because they only had 3 people signed up for it. So in lieu of that I decided to spend more time in the pool working on form.  

Injury status - Bleh.  Still injured & not running.   I started ART on the 24th.  So far I have gone 3 times.   He said if I didn't have a 50% improvement in 5 weeks he will refer me to another specialist.   Until I get through the 5 weeks I am reserving judgement.  I will do a more detailed post on this later.

Favorite Gear - SwiMP3 - This was a Christmas gift from Steve.  It has come in handy since I have been upping my time in the pool.  I plan to do a review on this in the near future.

Weight - This month I lost 5 of the 8 pounds I gained post injury.   I am pretty happy about that.

February Exercise Goals

Swim - 18 miles
Pilates Reformer - 5
Pilates Ball - 3
Yoga - 4
P90X - 8 (The new videos will be used for the N2U CT Challenge)

The last spin class I took aggravated my injury so I am taking some time off from spin again...grrr. 

I am seriously considering signing up for a Total Immersion workshop in February.

February plans for addressing the injury

ART - 4 more weeks
Acupuncture - 3 sessions
