Keeping the Holiday Burn Going!

Today's was the 2nd day for my Holiday Running Streak.  I got to the gym late (around 5:45 pm) so I decided to make it a short trip to the gym on the Treddy - walked 2.0 mi, and jogged 1.0 mi (stats from equipment readout). 

Warm-up (bike) - 5:00

Walk
30:00 - 1.77 mi, 3.5 mph
Avg HR - 116'7.1 laps
242 cal
Pace - 16:40/mil

Jog (run)
1.0 mi, 14:10
0.15 mi 4.0 mph
0.10 mi - 4.5 mph

My back was still a little sore and achy, but I managed to finish my workout.
