I slept in a little bit this morning; therefore, for my non-running workout I was only able to get in an even 1.0 mile before 6:00 am.  For this morning wake-up jog, I went up to Hill View Drive then back to home after doing a half of a lap around the neighborhood (time of 8:04 and a heart rate of 143 bpm). 

It was the stormy day along the Wasatch Front; therefore, after I got off of work, I headed home then out for the opportunity to run in the rain.  However, by the time I got out the door, it was only drizzling, but there were plenty of puddles to run around and through.  For this evening run, I ran up to the Smith-Kiln Chimney then around the Brickyard Shopping Plaza before returning to home by way of 1300 South and Big Cottonwood Park.  In total, I completed 5.2 miles at an easy pace.

Lastly, for my non-running workout I was able to get in 300 sit-ups and 30 push-ups before calling it a day.

An opportunity to run in the rain, I like the way you put that! Those are treadmill days for me!!!

Thanks Kelli and welcome back! This reminds me, I still have to read your Boston Marathon race report (I just got around to watching my recording of the race yesterday).

I wish we had that darn HD channel that had the race, I would have loved to have seen the finishers!
