I feel the need, the need for speed.

Tuesday was my speed workout day. I normally do speed work on the track but since I was running during my lunch break I had to make other plans. I used the map tool at the USATF website to map out a run. The first part of the run was a .82 mile warm up, followed by 3 X 1 mile, followed by a 1.9 mile cool down. My times for the mile repeats were 7:04, 7:16, and 6:57. These are major improvements for me over last year. (still not near my speed in my early 20's when I could cover 3 miles in under 20 minutes) I wrapped up my midday workout with some bench presses on the Nautilus machine at work and some leg lifts on the Roman Chair for my abs. I finished up my Tuesday workout plan with 80 pushups and 100 situps during the Biggest Loser. I also had my Tuesday weigh-in. No weight loss for the week. Still hanging at 171.5.

I was scheduled for 7 miles today but it didn't work out since my right knee was a little tender. I will do pushups, situps, and the core workout program tonight and make up the run on Friday.

Burrito Challenge



Of the three major chains that are available in Indianapolis who has the best burrito? A couple of my coworkers and I will be taking on the two burrito challenge in a few short weeks. Most likely at Moe's on "Moe Monday" but out of curiosity, which burrito do you like best?

Moe's?
Chipotle?
Qdoba?
