Day 43, CLX/Insanity

Tonight was Chalean PUSH 1. My knees are still feeling sore and we did a lot of squats tonight, so I'll have to icy hot them again tonight. After my 5K Saturday morning I took it easy all weekend and today. I'm not sure what I did, so I'm going to change things up again. I've signed up for a couple races this year so running is definitely important. I'm going to continue doing CLX three times a week and run three times a week. Insanity will be cut back to twice a week instead of three. I'm hoping that helps. Chris is on leave for the next 2 weeks (before he leaves for 3 more weeks) so I'll be able to run without the jogging stroller, and I'm hoping that helps as well. I might also need new shoes. It could be the impact on my runs making my knees hurt. I'm tough on my shoes, so I should probably buy a pair just for running and running only.
As for the workout tonight, it went really well. I dropped from 12 lbs to 10 lbs for all the moves; maybe pushing up to 12 lbs was part of the problem on my knees?? I also did all 8 push-ups plus the 3 extreme without going to my knees (maybe doing them on my knees is bothering them??). Tomorrow is Insanity
Max Interval Circuit, yep, the "hardest one in the set," the mother of all Insanity workouts, the 59 minute one. UGH! We'll see how it goes without the kids!
