Tuesday- Bi's+ Tri's (3 exercises-3 sets each)then 1 1/2 run faster pace, then do some sprints afterwards
Wednesday- Back (3 exercises 3 sets) then 2 mile run slow speed.
Thursday- Shoulders (3 exercises 3 sets)1 1/2 mile run faster pace then sprints afterwards.
Friday- Legs (3 exercises 3 sets) 2 mile run slower speed

Just curious, do you plan on working your abs and forearms at all? looks ok to me otherwise.

that looks almost the same as my schedule...except I do trapz on shoulder day...and i alternate cardio and abs daily...Im in the same dilemma now where i cant work out on the weekend...so I do 5 days pretty much straight too..and I noticed that my gains are near as good as they were when i didnt have to do 5 consecutive days.....so if you can make it so that you split up your rest days, Id recommend that ..it gives your muscles more time to recover since on back day your still using bi's after they havent fully recovered etc....

My honest opinion is that your not doing enough exercises or sets to achieve a whole lot. If you are wanting to maintain your weight you should do atleast a 20 set work out daily. For example on a chest day, do 4 sets of decline bench, incline bench, flat bench, flat flies, and cable cross. If your wanting to gain weight I would recommend doing a 30 set workout, or 2 15 set workouts daily. Only working out 5 days a week however I agree with you should always give you body atleast 2 days of rest (that's when you grow the most). This is just my opinion, different bodies work differently. If this works well for you, keep doing it. If it doesn't and your seeking a different routine, add for exercises and do 4 sets rather than 3 is my opinion. Good luck.
