Narrative: (Duration – 51:26 mins) → My Run Log Really great way to end my 30 day challenge. After a pretty intense day yesterday, today was ending on an intense and measured workout. Specifics: Did Need for Speed HIIT movements as indicated below (21:00 mins). Afterwards, I moved to 30 mins on the Elliptical – 19° incline/80-90SPM/Level 2. Motivational music – My RockMyRun weekly suggestion sent me this new mix Twerk Out (RockMyRun). It was ok, although there are better ones that already have in my repertoire. At any rate it worked for this workout, so I will have to see if I will use it again. Scroll down below to check it out.
Summary:
It was really an enjoyable albeit challenging 30 days of working to a successful end. I pretty much met all my wickets for this phase; see the “Statistic Metric” below. Looking forward to starting next phase in 2 weeks or earlier. Good livin’…lean forward and keep movin‘.
