After work I took to the treadmill and ran a total of 2.8 miles before heading home. Most of this workout (i.e., 2.7 miles) was done in my Vibram Five Fingers which gave my feet and legs a great workout. After I got home, I ran an additional 3.4 miles outside in which I ran the neighborhood loop from my home to Saint Marks Hospital then back to Big Cottonwood Park. As a result, I completed a total of 6.2 miles and with the exception of a half a mile at marathon pace, I ran these miles at an easy pace.
Today was my repeat of day seven (i.e., week 3, day 1) of the Push-Up Challenge and this time around I accomplished a total of 87 push-ups over five sets. These sets included 14, 18, 14, 14, and a max out of 27 push-ups (i.e., a max-out set of three push-ups greater than last week). I also completed 420 sit-ups, 20 metronomes, 150 (40, 30, 16 lbs) curls, and 40 (50 lbs) reverse curls. |
