First, I must apologize because this post is two days late, meaning my workout was done on Friday. I had to work Saturday and simply forgot to publish the post on Friday evening.
I hit the gym and did some back workouts including lats, traps and lower back after doing a 10-minute warmup on the elliptical machine.
Once that was all finished, I did a 7-mile run in 61:30 at 8:47/mile. The pace is usually much slower for a long run, which I consider anything longer than an hour of time.
It's been quite a while since I've run more than an hour on a treadmill. I think the last time was in the winter of 2006-2007 when I was training for the Cleveland Marathon in the spring of 2007. I'd much rather run outside, but when it's a lake-effect snowstorm you don't have much choice.
Speaking of marathons, I thought this Runners World Quote of the Day was appropriate, although I don't claim to have a love for this distance:
"I didn't want to run Boston to prove anything. I just fell in love with the marathon."
Roberta Gibb on running the Boston Marathon
Happy running!
