Early this Sunday afternoon I headed out for any easy pace 10.9-mile run up to Canyon Rim Park and back.  With the sun out and temperatures in the fifties, it was perfect running weather.  Also, my calf was a little sore on the run down from the park, but after a long weekend of three pretty good runs, it did not feel too bad.

While watching my Broncos cap off the first year of the McDaniels era with a disappointing loss to the Chiefs, I completed my non-running workout that consisted of 300 sit-ups and 25 push-ups.

In regards to my non-running workout, it consisted of 300 sit-ups and 30 push-ups.

Being careful with the right calf, following work I evenly split my running workout up between the treadmill and the elliptical machine by completing 3.1 miles on each machine before calling it day.  Also, I took the long way home and ended up jogging seven-tenths of a mile to conclude my non-running workout for the day.

In addition, I just completed my standard non-running workout of 300 sit-up and 30 push-ups.

Following work, with the aim of reducing the pounding on my right calf, I ran 8.1 miles on the elliptical machine.  After I got home, I went out for a run over to Big Cottonwood Park where I completed three laps around the softball complex before heading back.  The total distance of this run was an even 2.0 miles at an easy pace.

For my non-running workout, I was able to completed 300 sit-ups, 30 push-ups, 40 (30 lbs) curls, and 10 (50 lbs) reverse curls.

Since I had to work late then get up early the following morning in order to get some material put together for our Wasatch Back party night, I unfortunately missed out on my weekly group run with the Salt Lake Running Company.  However, I was still able to get in some running today.  First, I ran up to the Office Max and back for a total of 3.3 miles.  In the evening, I ran over to our Wasatch Back movie premier night and back for a combined distance of 2.6 miles.  Then I went on a late, late night run in which I jogged over to Big Cottonwood Park and completed thirteen laps around the softball complex before heading back home and calling it a night.  The total distance of this run was 6.2 miles.

Lastly, for my non-running workout, I was able to get in 300 sit-ups and 30 push-ups.
