For the first time since training for the Philadelphia Marathon (11/13/2009), I did a serious speed workout on the treadmill. Even though I usually suffer through interval workouts, I actually felt pretty good during the course of this workout (i.e., my right calf held up, just a little tight at times). In total I completed 6.0 miles of half-mile intervals on the treadmill (i.e., the slow halves at 8.8 miles per hour and the fast halves at 10.8) in a time of 37:23. I followed this interval workout with a 0.2-mile cool-down at marathon pace and a 0.6-mile jog.
In regards to my non-running workout, I completed 300 sit-ups, 30 push-ups, 50 (30 lbs) curls, and 20 (50 lbs) reverse curls. |
