I had a little bit of a chest cold today (i.e., a sore throat and persistent cough); therefore, I did not do my planned interval workout on the treadmill. I am a little disappointed, but I realize it is better in the long run to get my lungs healthy before trying to do a speed workout. However, I did get in 6.1 miles of running on the treadmill at marathon pace; that is, I made sure to drink plenty of water and not to push it to the point where I was breathing hard.
In regards to my non-running workout, it was really limited today in that I only completed 200 sit-ups and 100 (16 lbs) curls. In addition, I could not fully extend my arms over my head due to the soreness from day one of the push-up challenge. |
