With a regular half mile warm up already done we started a bigger warm up of two miles. When we got back we did a work out called vVO2 which is running hard for 6 minutes. did ok and stayed in the middle of the pack my distance was 1596 not to bad for the beginning of the season. after we did a mile cool down
Well, today was quite a fun day. We started with just the regular warm although today i was a bit late which was awesome. After planks and what not we headed of to the dirt mile. There it seemed like we were going way to fast, which gave me a huge side ache. The mileage after that was just short of 4 miles but later in kids club made up the difference.
Grass run all round today. Three miles on the grass and then did striders also on the grass. I enjoyed the run as usual today but my left ankle started to hurt a little, and i think that is because of the angle of the grass. Striders was better on my ankle though.
Two Parkway loops today and i must say i was not prepared for them. I felt like we were pushing the pace the entire time at least the first bit, when we first got to the starting pick up pace i stuck with the top guys the whole time then with a little left just fell behind and couldn't keep up. I was having a hard time breathing after the first one and had the worst side ache ever. By the time i was about to start the second one I could breathe easier and side ache was mostly gone. I didn't push as hard on the second one, just couldn't do it. And that helped me a ton after the second felt way better than after the first. Took it slow the rest of the way back still with a little side ache but was gone when i got back.
Today was a pretty nice run, my usual side ache problem wasn't a problem today. We did 4 miles today starting at Heritage park in coral canyon the trail we went on kind of like a smaller version of roller coaster hills. We went pretty fast, again, for no reason, but still was fun.
Just an easy saturday run. Did my run later than usual because i woke up later than usual and I didn't want to run in the intense heat, and so i waited till it cooled down a bit and it was still quite warm but not in direct sunlight which was better. Nothing really painful or sore, just an easy run.
