I woke up early this morning and jogged 3.5 miles over to the Salt Lake Running Company to meet up with the gang for a group run up to Liberty Park. This run consisted of two laps around the park for a total distance of 6.5 miles. I pushed the pace during this workout was able to complete it in the upper boundary of my marathon-pace range (i.e., a 6:50 minutes per mile pace). Certainly, not my fastest run, but the fastest training run that I have completed since I pulled my left hamstring over a month ago. Consequently, it’s progress.
After meeting with our Ragnar Las Vegas Relay team (i.e., our final team meeting before our big race next weekend), I jogged 3.4 miles back to home. In order to get in some extra miles and to get use to running at multiple times during the day for our relay race, I headed out for an evening run up to Brickyard Shopping Plaza then over to Granite High School and back. The total distance of this run was a 5.7 miles at an easy pace.
In regards to my non-running workout, I completed my standard workout of 300 sit-ups and 30 push-ups. |
