Early this Saturday morning, I ran 2.1 miles up to the Salt Lake Running Company for our weekly Salt-Lake-Marathon-In-Training group run. For this group run, we ran up to 1700 East and completed two loops up to 1900 East and between roughly 2400 South and 3300 South before heading back to the store. The total distance of this run was 6.6 miles; therefore, just a little over a 10k. After picking up my new pair of Adidas Adizero Manas (I’m hoping to develop my gait and strength in my feet to the point where I can eventually run a marathon in these racing flats), I ran the 2.1 miles back home.
In order to not only add on some extra mileage, but also to pick-up a Philadelphia travel book for my upcoming race/trip, I ran up to the Holladay Library and back. The total distance of this run was 5.3 miles. Overall, today was a solid mileage day where I focused on my form as I ran at a relatively easy pace.
In regards to my non-running workout, it was short and sweet in that I completed 220 sit-ups, a 60-second plank on elbows and toes, and 30 push-ups. |
