This morning, I ran over to Cottonwood Country Club and stopped by Big Cottonwood Park on the way back to complete eight laps around the softball complex.  The total distance of this run was 9.9 miles at an easy pace.  In the early afternoon, I jogged between The Gateway shopping plaza and the city library for 4.2 miles. I then finished up my daily running routine by knocking out an even 7.0 miles on the treadmill.

In regards to my daily non-running workout, I completed 300 sit-ups.

Five-Minute Plank Challenge: 30 second plank and side planks

Thanks Allie! In regards to planks, I'm just doing the bare minimum. However, the 5 minute plank dream is not dead!
