Day 2

2 sets of half sit-ups at 2 minutes each:
set 1: 48 half sit-ups.
set 2: 62 half sit-ups.

The fitness plan suggested a 2-4 mile run. Since I have been running 2 miles already, I opted for the bigger number. In the article that precedes the fitness plan, Weichert says that the body will be better able to handle shorter distances if it is conditioned for longer ones.

4 mile run
2 mile split time was 18:50
4 mile total was 43:13

The 2 mile was about 1 minute better than it has been, so yay for some improvement!

I like to listen to podcasts while I run, in particular Steve Runner's Phedippidations podcast. In fact it was listening to that podcast that inspired me to start this blog. That got me through the first 2 and half miles but I needed some tunes to get me through the last mile. So I switched over to some Gaelic Storm to get me home. You can't run slow when listen to Irish music.
