Day 12

Day 12

Today we ran the 10km trail around Elk/Beaver Lake Regional Park. It is a beautiful area with tons of opportunity and space to train and focus. I was a little timid with today’s workout because my knee had been acting up the day before. However, after a comforting ice bath and some static stretching I was ready to conquer the trail. I decided to wear my knee brace for the run, I would highly recommend it to anyone with ligament or muscles issues surrounding the knee, you only have your knees once so spend the money, it’s worth it!!! After the run I still had a lot of energy so decided to hit the free weights at Ian Stewart Complex, integrating a superset into my workout.
