4.02 Mile Treadmill Run in 29:04

4.02 Mile Treadmill Run in 29:04

Jumped on the treadmill this afternoon while to get in a good run while watching Louisville bball win another game and also catching a little bit of EPL soccer. I wanted to run 5 miles, but felt like crap once I reached 4, so I figured, why push it? I ended up finishing the 4.02 mile run in 29:04 for an average pace of 7:13/mile.

5K Treadmill Run in 20:49

Got back to my sub 7 minute mile ways with a strong 5K run on the home treadmill this afternoon. Although I had eaten lunch about 1 hour earlier, I still decided to give it a shot and get in a good run. I ended up finishing the 5k (3.11 miles) in 20:49 for an average pace of 6:41/mile.

BSC Chest Workout + 2 Mile Run

BSC Chest Workout + 2 Mile Run

I don't konw what it is about the BSC in Waltham, but the air quality is terrible. I can run for days on my home treadmill, but the BSC treadmills suck and the air quality in the building is terrible. Luckily I was able to tough out a 2 mile warmup run before heading to the free weights area to lift chest.

I ended up finishing the 2.01 mile run in 14:17.

5.39 Mile Run in 40:05

5.39 Mile Run in 40:05

Got on the treadmill tonight so that I could watch the US soccer game and get in about 45 minutes of running. I was feeling pretty good, but at the 40:05 mark, Sara broke into the basement with the news that we had a leak upstairs in our bedroom. Being the good husband, I ended my workout prematurely to go upstairs and assess the situation. I ended up finishing the 5.39 mile run in 40:05 for an average pace of 7:25/mile.

Lifting & Running at BSC

Lifting & Running at BSC

Nice little lunchtime workout at BSC today. Started off working shoulders (sitting overhead press, standing dummbell raises), then worked chest (sitting flies, cable crossovers), then finished with a little tri's (standing plate raises). Afterwards, I went upstairs to the running track and did a couple of pacey sprints. Unfortunately the air quality is horrible and reminds me of indoor tracks - so I couldn't last too long.
