I woke up with a bad headache, but I still managed to get out the door for my sub-6:00-am run. However, since I was commuting to work by bike, it was a slightly shorter than normal wake-up run in that I ran over to Big Cottonwood Park and completed just a single lap around the softball complex before heading back. The total distance of this run was 1.3 miles at an easy pace. In addition, I was able to exercise my headache away by riding my bike to work.
Following work, I hit the treadmill and ran a total of 4.9 miles. In regards to this run, I completed 2.7 miles at an easy pace and 2.2 miles at a marathon pace. Since the trail race I completed a few weeks ago, I have been doing longer runs at an easy pace; therefore, I’m going to try to pick up the pace on my runs over the next few weeks.
For my non-running workout, I completed 200 sit-ups, 30 push-ups, 100 (50, 40, 30, 20, 16 lbs) curls, and 20 (50 lbs) reverse curls. |
