Tuesday- Running clinic + 20 min core and 3 mile walk

It is always interesting to learn more about how to improve your running form. We had a great private running clinic for our MRTT group with 5 of us. More to come on what I learned. I also tried out the new Under Armour sports specific mask. Full review coming soon.

    Anxious to hear more about the power Zone workout! I’m so glad to see you back running; pain free is a win! What is that like anyway? I feel like I always have pain when I run. Nothing mechanical, just RA….

    • Deborah Brooks says

      08/30/2020 at 1:24 pm

      I’m easing back in slowly with fingers crossed

  6. Kim G says

    08/30/2020 at 12:08 pm

    So cool that your MRTT group was able to do the private running clinic! I also can’t wait for your review of the UA mask. I’ve heard mixed things about it so far so I wanted to wait before buying since it’s pretty expensive.

    Thanks for the tips you’ve given me about the PZ classes so far – I start them on Tuesday!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      08/30/2020 at 1:24 pm

      Mask review coming this week. I really liked it. Have fun w PZ training

  7. Chocolaterunsjudy says

    08/30/2020 at 12:11 pm

    Sounds like you had a lot of fun, exciting stuff going on this week! Can’t wait to read more about it.

    Have a great week, Deborah! Yay for running with no pain.

    • Deborah Brooks says

      08/30/2020 at 1:33 pm

      Ha yes I finally have some real things to write about the next few weeks

  8. Darlene S Cardillo says

    08/30/2020 at 12:18 pm

    Can’t wait to hear about that running clinic. It sounds like something my running group should do.

    Hooray for no pain!!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      08/30/2020 at 1:38 pm

      Review coming soon! Fingers crossed pain free running continues

  9. Liz Dexter says

    08/30/2020 at 12:49 pm

    I love your strong work and pictures – go you!

    I’ve been doing another just-over-100-mile month and pleased with that. Running further than any other year. I am really tired but I had a better bedtime last night and felt so much better for it today so I really think it’s the sleeping not the running knocking me back.

    • Deborah Brooks says

      08/30/2020 at 1:39 pm

      100 miles is fantastic glad yo hear the running is going so well for you right now!

  10. Coco says

    08/30/2020 at 12:56 pm

    I put the hip opener program on my September goals — sounds amazing! Can’t wait to hear more about PowerZone.

    • Deborah Brooks says

      08/30/2020 at 1:39 pm

      I’m enjoying it so far!

  11. Michelle D. says

    08/30/2020 at 1:54 pm

    So glad to hear you’re running pain free! I’ll be interested to hear about your running clinic and if any of the techniques are similar to Chi Running.

    Thanks for the link-up!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      08/30/2020 at 4:42 pm

      I always meant to take a chi running class and never did! Fingers crossed on the running.I am taking things very slow on the return

  12. Melissa says

    08/30/2020 at 2:34 pm

    YAY! So glad you’re feeling better. I’ve started feeling some pain when running (plantar fascitis, but worse than usual), so hoping it gets better soon. Love all your workout clothes!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      08/30/2020 at 4:47 pm

      PF is the worst! Have you tried sleeping w the Strasbourg sock? That helped me a lot

  13. Lisa @ TechChick Adventures says

    08/30/2020 at 3:25 pm

    Kudos on the pain free running! And good job on all of the yoga! I sewed a few masks recently. I’m still trying to find a mask that my husband really likes because he is challenged by them. I’ve gotten used to them, but he doesn’t wear one as often. It’s too bad you can’t try them on – or even touch them – before you buy them!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      08/30/2020 at 4:50 pm

      yes I have bought a few different styles to see which I like best. It’s going to be our way of life for a while

  14. Laura says

    08/30/2020 at 4:09 pm

    Hooray for pain-free running! I sewed a few masks and my husband bought me some nice ones to wear for upcoming family events. I’m curious about the running masks though!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      08/30/2020 at 4:54 pm

      It is hard to find masks that work for everything. I really liked it review coming Wednesday 🙂

  15. Zenaida Arroyo says

    08/30/2020 at 4:11 pm

    I also checked out the Power Zone Training Program. Hopefully I will start it this coming week.

    How fun you participated in the Flex and Flow Virtual Camping. Is that the one that last year was held in Wisconsin or somewhere closeby?

    • Deborah Brooks says

      08/30/2020 at 4:58 pm

      Yes it was the camp that was held in Wisconsin last year. It was supposed to be in Virginia this summer. Hopefully next year!

  16. Lisa @ Mile by Mile says

    08/30/2020 at 6:13 pm

    Sounds like you tried alot of fun new things this week! Looking forward to hearing more about them. So glad you are back to running!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      08/30/2020 at 6:15 pm

      thanks fingers crossed for a slow and pain free return to running

  17. Debbie @ Deb Runs says

    08/30/2020 at 7:27 pm

    Cheers for pain free running even if you’re having to keep it short for now! Here’s hoping patience pays off for both of us!

    Thanks for the linkup and have a great week!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      08/30/2020 at 8:15 pm

      I sure hope so for both of us!

  18. Debbie says

    08/31/2020 at 10:50 am

    I’m happy to hear that your hip is feeling better and that you ran pain-free. I think that running clinic will really help too because good form = less chance of injury.

    • Deborah Brooks says

      08/31/2020 at 11:46 am

      I hope so! It’s just not so easy to change habits

  19. Jenn says

    08/31/2020 at 12:52 pm

    Great job! It’s really so mind-blowing how much can be accomplished virtually. Sure, it’s not a replacement for in-person, but it’s a great band-aid and is working so well for so many.

    Keep up the awesome work!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      08/31/2020 at 3:53 pm

      It is working really well for me right now
