For the second day in a row, I knocked out 21.1 miles.  This time I did at the Maryland Athletic Center (MAC) located in the scenic Inner Harbor on a treadmill.  I increased the pace throughout out the workout and finished the last 2.5 miles at a respectable marathon pace.  In total, I was able to complete this run in 2:38:34.  Back home to Salt Lake City tomorrow!

My non-running workout consisted of 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 giant blueberry smoothie

Thanks Preston and Burt! Your postings kept me running, but I just needed to get caught up at work and sometime to get re-organized over the holidays. As a result, I'm back! Thanks again for your support and I hope you enjoyed your Holidays!
