I didn't have time to do any running (or any sort of work out at all) over the weekend. However, I was able to do my "unconventional work out" routing in which I spend time doing things that gets my heart rate up.
This weekend I was able to spend about 3 hours doing a variety of outside work. This included both shoveling the horse shed and doing all sorts of yard maintenance. Although I'm pretty sure I didn't get my heart rate very high into zone 4 (for me a heart rate of 155 or higher) I did keep it sustained in the zone 3 rate.
The yard work wore me out. So from a muscle perspective it probably didn't do me much good, however, from an endurance perspective, I figure it did help me.
