I mainly stuck to the treadmill following work today and knocked out 4.8 miles with 1.4 miles at an easy pace and 3.4 miles at a marathon pace. After I got home I slipped on my Vibram Five Fingers and headed out to Big Cottonwood Park and completed a lap around the park’s dirt path. I completed this 1.6-mile jaunt through the park at an easy pace, but it was a great workout and tons of fun. In short, feeling like you are running barefoot on a dirt trail is what running is all about.
In regards to my non-running workout, I was able to get in 300 sit-ups, a 100-second wall sit, and 20 (50) curls.
