2 Easy Treadmill Miles in 16:45
Well I must admit I am still sore from the late night of soccer on Thursday. However, I felt compelled to at least get on the treadmill and run a couple easy miles to try and loosen up the tight muscles. I set the speed to 7.0 and started off towards two miles. I stretched around the 1/2 mile mark, and then nudged the speed up to 7.1 and again up to 7.2. I never felt great during the run, but I'm satisfied that I at least got it in. I finished the 2 mile run in 16:45 for an average pace of 8:16/mile.

70 Minutes of Indoor Soccer
70 Minutes of Indoor Soccer
We kicked off our indoor soccer season last night at Teamworks in Acton, MA. The Spartak contingent was forced with a double-header on our first night, which was a bit disturbing considering many of us hadn't touched a soccer ball since October. Unfortunately we lost both games. We had stretches of playing well and all of us got great workouts. We had back-to-back 50 minute games (100 minutes total), of which I played about 70 minutes. Great workout of muscles that hadn't been exercised in a few months.

5K (3.11 mile) Treadmill Run in 24:06
5K Treadmill Run in 24:06
Got on the treadmill tonight with the expectation of running a slower paced 5k. I started the treadmill off at 7.6 (just below an 8 min/mile pace), and proceeded to run at that speed until the 4K mark. With 1K remaining I upped the speed to 10.0 (6 min/mile pace) and finished the run. I ultimately finished the 5K run in 24:06 for an average pace of 7:44/mile. According to nikeplus I burned 431 calories.
