Treadmill run

If you have been following my posts you will know that not too long ago I made a resolution to run more. Well, today I followed through on that (at least in part).

Nothing real special about this morning, just another La Mariposa morning swim practice for my daughter and another morning workout for me. The Trap strain from yesterday is still an issue. My neck was stiff and sore when I work up this morning. Turning my head to the right was no problem. But, turning to the left, well that was a different story. So, the best thing for me to do today was to get a run in. And that is exactly what I did.

Treadmill
4.5 miles / 45 minutes

• 1 mile @ 6.0 mph (10:00 min/mile)
  
• 2.5 miles @ 6.5 mph (9:13 min/mile)
  
• .5 mile @ 6.0 mph (10:00 min/mile)
  
• .5 mile @ 5.5 mph (10:49 min/mile)

Bosu ball lunges - 2x6
Wide-Stance Medicine ball fig. 8's - 1x30

Had a good run. My neck didn't really bother me at all. My left knee on the other hand, was fine during the run, but now is a little sore. No real concerns though. Just trying to slowly get back to a place where I can handle the longer runs.

Side Note: I remembered to wear my HRM chest strap and the gym treadmills are supposed to pick up the chest strap signal automatically. The treadmill I was on never did register my heart rate though. So, I am a little disappointed that I don't know my HR range for today's run.
