With my left big toe feeling much better this morning, I headed back out in Vibram Five Fingers--this time with a flashlight--for another sub-6:00-am workout. For this run, I jogged over to Big Cottonwood Park and completed one-and-a-half laps around the softball complex before heading back. On the return trip, I discovered what and how I stubbed my toe the other day; that is, it was a manhole cover and since I was running with little foot-support, I was dragging my feet to reduce the poundage. As a result, I need to pickup my feet--lesson learned. The total distance of this morning run was 1.6 miles at an easy pace.
Following work, it was back to the treadmill where I ran total of 4.6 miles. I regards to this distance, I was able to pick up the pace and complete 2.2 miles at marathon pace while the rest was at an easy pace.
For my non-running workout, I completed 200 sit-ups, 27 push-ups, and 60 (50, 40, 30 lbs) curls, and 20 (50 lbs) reverse curls. |
