After watching my Jazz lose a disappointing game to the Suns last night (they still need to improve their transition defense), I did some major sleeping in this morning especially since the game did not end until 1:30 am EST. Consequently, I had a late breakfast and headed down to the MAC (Maryland Athletic Club) at the Inner Harbor and hit the treadmill. After a half mile warm-up, I ran for mile at marathon pace, a quarter mile at threshold pace followed by 2.05 miles at a marathon pace. Overall, a nice 3.8-mile run at a 6:58 minutes-per-mile pace.
Also, late in the afternoon, I headed out for a mile jog around Stadium Place (i.e., the old site of the Memorial Coliseum where the Orioles and Colts once played--a park, YMCA, and apartment complex are now on this lot) to finish my third consecutive day of tapering for the Marines Corps Marathon.
For my daily non-running workout, I was able to get in 300 sit-ups and 30 push-ups. |
