Poor new shoes and a Zuzanna sighting!

 I had a bit of a muddy slogfest of a run yesterday.  I was planning to do a little speed work but all I did was slide around so I turned it into an easy run and am going to try for speed work today instead.  My pretty new Kayanos are officially no longer uber bright white.  :(

 Tempted to wash them but what difference will it make, they are running shoes, they get to run on dirt roads and that means MUD.  Just as well get used to it.

For those of you that follow/have followed Bodyrock.tv and were bummed out when Zuzanna departed..great news!  She is back on You Tube with a new channel, not affiliated with Bodyrock.tv anymore but on her own. The name ZWOD or Zuzanna's workout of  the day is not nearly as catchy but.. she is touting it as using no equipment.  I love this!  In other words no Ugi Ball, Dip Station, Equalizer bars, etc.  In other words so much easier and cheaper to do at home, ladies! Although not entirely true as I have seen her using a dumb bell and a jump rope.

Here is a preview

Instead of a HIIT format she is giving you a set of exercises and then seeing if you can beat your time the next time you do it.  Here is what she describes it as

  Every week Zuzana Light will give you new ZWODs (Zuzana's Workout of the Day). Remember to track how long it takes you to complete each workout then focus on beating your time! With every ZWOD you perform, achieving your fitness goals will become that much closer. Zuzana will always lead you through your workout, so don't think hard... PUSH HARD!

Not sure I entirely like this, but I guess I can always take the exercises she gives and put them into a HIIT format instead.  I want to concentrate on doing the exercise right not just beating my time. 

Bodyrock.tv is still doing a great job and has found some great hosts but I really missed Zuzanna and was getting a little turned off by all the equipment.  How are you supposed to do it at home easily if they keep introducing new equipment that you can't afford?  I haven't been keeping up with the new workouts because of this instead I have been going back and doing old ones or making up my own.

Now if Zuzanna would just start her own website to outline the workouts like Bodyrock.tv does it would be awesome!

Here is a look at one of her new ones 

I am off to go try it!
