Ladder Workouts will getcha!
Yesterday, Team Chances NYC did a ladder workout at track that definitely kicked my butt! A ladder workout looks like this:
1-1-2-1-3-1-4-4-4-1-3-1-2-1-1-1
One minute hard, one minute easy, two minutes hard, one minute easy, and so on. The 4 minute hard intervals were killer!!! My legs are still sore today! I had to run to the porta potty during the end of the 3 minute hard, and into the 1-2-1 section, so my splits look funny. I have also never reset my laps during a workout before, so that took some getting used to. Here are my splits from that workout:
At first, I slowly jogged the one minute rest periods. After the 2 minute hard interval, I was so winded that I walked them. Track workouts are so different, and even though I kind of want to keel over during some parts of them, I really do like them! My running friends say track workouts really help improve your speed a lot. I can’t wait until it cools down to really see how much I have improved!
I got my new nail polish in the mail today that I talked about in my last blog post! It’s called “Lady Like” by Essie. I LOVE it! I am wearing it right now. Here it is:
I feel like the flash tones down the “rosiness” of the color a little bit. Isn’t it pretty, though!? It’s such a natural color and it goes with almost anything!
This picture shows the true color better than the previous picture. I couldn’t find this color at my Walgreens. I think it might be an old color, or a seasonal one. I actually got mine on Amazon.com for less than I would’ve paid at Walgreens, even with shipping! It got here in like 3 days, too, so even better!
Happy Trails!
What is your favorite nail polish color? Or your favorite for the summer? What have you been doing this week for your workouts?
