Well, hey!

Did you all know today was National Running Day? I was a little out of the loop and didn’t realize it until earlier today… but, nonetheless, I celebrated. I am the Nutrition Nut on the run after all.

After work, much of it being at the computer, I was itching to get my legs runnin’.

• 30 minutes treadmill @ 1.0 incline – 3.3 miles
  • 4 min. @ 4.6 // 6 min. @ 7.6
  • 4 min. @ 4.8 // 6 min. @ 7.8
  • 4 min. @ 5.0 // 6 min. @ 8.0

• 10 minutes StairMaster @ 130

and then… I spotted a sandbag on the floor. I thought the WREC had gotten rid of them, but apparently not. Swoon.

• 5 burpees @ 50lb.
• 10 high-pulls @ 50lb.
• 15 squats @ 50lb.

repeat set… then 10 burpees to finish it off. 

& because it is was all about running today, I thought I’d round up a few of my favorite running-related blog posts from the archives (in no particular order).

• My Running Shoe Relationship
• Race Reflections
• 10 Treadmill Truths
• Why I Run
• Half-Marathon PR {race recap}
