Since I got out of bed early for a Sunday morning run, there was little traffic. As a result, I decided to push the pace a little bit over the mainly flat terrain of the course, which consisted of running over to the Jordan River Parkway then 2.5 miles north on the trail before returning to home. I ran the first mile at a relatively easy pace (i.e., 7:41) to get warmed up. Then I just focused on pushing the pace all the way to the end of the workout. I accomplished my personal objective at keeping the miles per minute under seven and ended up running the entire workout (including the warm-up mile) at a 6:42 pace. This workout felt great and my legs recovered well from yesterday’s race and long run.
Also, while watching the Sunday morning news programs, I completed 200 sit-ups and 25 push-ups. |
