Following the end of a long workweek, I hit the treadmill for some speed training. After a one-mile warm-up run (completed at speeds between an easy pace and a marathon pace), I ran 4 miles of half-mile intervals (i.e., the slow halves at 8.5 miles per hour, while the fast halves at 10.5). I followed this interval workout with a 1.1 mile cool down at paces ranging from threshold to easy.
When I got home, I went out for a second run. This 4.2 mile easy pace run consisted of running to Big Cottonwood Park, over to Murray-Holladay Road, up to Highland Drive before heading back home.
For my non-running workout, I completed 200 sit-ups, 25 push-ups, 80 (50, 40, 30 lbs) curls, and 20 (60, 50 lbs) reverse curls. |
