I woke up this morning and realized that I really need to put out all my running cloths the night before because it takes too long to get everything together in the morning.  For this workout, I ran up the old Villa Theater and back for a total distance of 5.0 miles.  It was another slow pace run due to all the snow and ice, but I love the sound of the snow crunching underweight each footfall.  I’m aiming to get in some mileage on the treadmill after work today in order to wrap-up my running for 2010.

Okay, I’m so disappointed, no miles on the treadmill since I worked late tonight.  I figured it was better to call it a year and to get some sleep in order to brave the cold tomorrow morning.

For my daily non-running workout, I completed 300 sit-ups, 30 push-ups, and two 100-second wall-sit (I’m going to have to work up to three of these per day).

5-minute Plank Challenge:  2:38 (PR and tried to hold it until 2:40, but ended up completely collapsing and when I looked up I saw my Garmin just changing to 2:40)
