I woke up early this morning and after stretching out my tired legs, I jogged through the early-morning darkness up to Skyline High School. After stretching for another ten minutes, I ran up Mill Creek Canyon to the Pipeline Trailhead where ascended Rattlesnake Gulch then ran along Pipeline to the Grandeur Peak Trailhead before returning to the road. I ran back down the Canyon and returned to Skyline High School where I completed a single lap around the school’s track before heading back to home. In total, I was able to complete 19.2 miles at a relatively slow pace (heart rate: 133 bpm); however, this finished an excellent weekend of great training runs in preparation for the Ragnar Las Vegas Relay that is less than two weeks away.
While watching my Broncos lose to a very good Baltimore Raven team, I completed my non-running workout of 200 sit-ups and 30 push-ups |
