I woke early Saturday morning and jogged 3.4 miles down to the Salt Lake Running Company to meet up with the gang for a run. BJ--the King of Kona--showed up and I was able to run with him for the first time in almost a year. We ran a ten-mile course through Liberty Park and up to South Temple then up the University of Utah and back. We completed this run in 1:04:09 (average pace of 6:25 minutes per mile) with the following splits: 6:28, 6:45, 6:45, 6:34, 7:05, 6:04, 6:10, 6:09, 6:04, and 6:05. It was great to hear BJ’s stories from the 2010 Iron Man World Championships in Kona and he absolutely ran me into the ground, especially over our last mile.
I then jogged 4.7 miles to the store to pick up some groceries before heading home. Then after a busy Saturday at work, I hit the treadmill and knocked out another 4.7 miles before heading home.
Finally my non-running workout consisted of 300 sit-ups, 30 push-ups, and a 100-second wall-sit.
5-minute Plank Challenge: 2:00 (shaking at 90 second, luck I held on as long as I did)
Trying-To-Go-Out-Of-My-Way-To-Eat-Healthy Daily Challenge: oatmeal cereal and a salad
