For the first time since tapering for the Wasatch Back, I was able to get in a speed workout. I completed three miles of half-mile intervals (i.e., the slow halves at 9.2 miles per hour, while the fast halves at 11.2) in a time of 17:51. Then I did a 0.1-mile cool down at marathon pace before heading home.
After I got home, I headed out for an evening run around the neighborhood and up to the Smith-Kiln Chimney and back. The total distance of this run was 4.6 miles at an easy pace (i.e., 9:38 minutes per mile).
In regards to me non-running workout, I completed my typical 300 sit-ups and 30 push-ups. |
