Today, I started my week of tapering for the Des-News Marathon on Monday, the 25th.  Consequently, after I got home from work, I jogged 4.1 up to the Smith-Kiln Chimney and back before calling it a day.

For my daily non-running workout, I it was another day of just 300 sit-ups.

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

Trying-To-Go-Out-Of-My-Way-To-Eat-Healthy Challenge:  a serving of oatmeal
