Due to a pending snow storm that our weather forecasters have be warning us about for the past few days, it was much warmer for my sub-6:00-am relative to yesterday’s morning run. Taking advantage of the cool, but pleasant temperatures, I ran over to Big Cottonwood Park in my Vibram Five Fingers and completed two laps of the softball complex before heading back to home. The total distance of this morning ran was 1.7 miles at an easy pace.
After work, I hit the treadmill for a speed workout by running 4 miles of half-mile intervals (i.e., the slow halves at 8.8 miles per hour and the fast halves at 10.8) in a time of 24:38. I followed this interval workout with a 0.2-mile cool-down run at marathon pace. Also, I went out for an evening 1.2-mile, easy-pace run around the neighborhood before calling it a day.
In regards to my non-running workout, I completed 330 sit-ups, 32 push-ups, 80 (50, 40, 30 lbs) curls, and 20 (50 lbs) reverse curls. |
