Following a busy Monday at work, I headed to the gym only to find that the treadmills were all in use.  Then I looked outside to remind myself that of our beautiful weather, so I ran over to the Airport Bike Path and took it all the way to the east-side of the airport near North Temple before heading back.  In total, I got in 6.4 miles at an easy pace (i.e., 8:03 minutes per mile).

After my run, I was able to get in a quality non-running workout of 300 sit-ups, a 100-second wall sit and 120 (50, 30, 20 lbs) curls.

Five-Minute Plank Challenge:  2:20 (building it back up)

Trying-To-Go-Out-Of-My-Way-To-Eat-Healthy Challenge:  a serving of whole-wheat pancakes

Glad the weather is improving. It's like Heaven here.

I love pancakes...but I can't consider them healthy since I smother them in butter and syrap...LOL
