Fitness Tuesday - Week 31 - Aqua Jogging!

After having a few very bad days, I feel very enthusiastic and optimistic again,  and my battle with the "runner's knee" is still on. After talking to Karen, my personal trainer, I have decided to start aqua jogging. Just before my holiday the aqua floating belt arrived and I went to test it out straight away! First I swam  20  breast stroke laps, and then I did 40 minuntes of aqua jogging. It was much harder than I thought. There were many people just staring at me and at the end one brave old lady even asked me : "can I just ask, what is this good for?" I can tell you it looks much easier than it really is. After 40 minutes I was quite tired. I cannot wait to practise it together with Karen after my holidays. I just hope that this will help with my runner's knee and staying fit for running the marathon!

This is what I managed to do last week:

Tuesday:  REST + knee strengthening and stretching ex

Wednesday: 20 mins rowing + 20 mins running + knee strengthening and stretching ex

Thursday: 20 mins swimming, 40 minutes aqua jogging + knee strengthening and stretching ex

Friday: Rest (flight to the CR) + knee strengthening and stretching ex

Saturday: 60 minutes swimming ( breast stroke, non stop) + knee strengthening and stretching ex

Sunday: REST + knee strengthening and stretching ex

Monday: REST + knee strengthening and stretching ex
