Today, I was finally able to get back to doing a speed workout. After work, I did an interval workout consisting of 3 miles of half-mile intervals (i.e., the slow halves at 8.5 miles per hour, while the fast halves at 10.5). I completed the three miles in a time of 19:12 (5k in 19:34). In addition, I did 1.8 miles at a marathon pace and 1.6 miles at an easy pace.
While watching Obama’s first address to Congress, I did my non-running workout which consisted of 450 sit-ups, 230 (40, 30, 16 lbs) curls, 60 (60, 50 lbs) reverse curls, 10 bridges (held each for approximately ten seconds), and 25 metronomes. |
