"Listen to your body. Do not be a blind and deaf tenant." -Dr. George Sheehan
Did my strength training this morning at 5am. Will swim a mile at lunch, then run 3-4 miles tonight after work. Still planning on doing the Red Nose Marathon this Saturday.
I'm getting a lot better now at the Crossfit 'knees to elbows' and 'glute-ham situps'. Typically I do 10 knees-to-elbows in between incline press and bench press sets, then do 4 sets of 20 glute-ham-situps as part of the curls-dips-abs rotation.
The 'knees to elbows' is featured in the February 2008 Runner's World magazine. It's called 'body curls' in the article. My suggestion is go to the Crossfit exercise demo area and watch the sample demonstration.
