Olympic oval today for some quality work in order to keep my fitness up due to the lack of mileage this week. Went way better than I expected, 3x3 miles with 1 lap easy in between. Splits were in the 5:13-5:20 range. THR-156-162 bpm. Felt good for the first set and got progressively harder until 2nd mile of the 3rd set where I could really feel the pace in my legs. Last mile got slower so I decided to terminate the workout as I was feeling a little dizzy. Grabbed a huge Coke from the concession stand and stretched for a while as I watched Apollo Ohno run his short track heat on the inner ice. Not eating enough carbs and my weight shows it as I am down to a hefty 136 from 141 lbs around October. I've noticed because I work outside I actually lose weight in the winter as vs the opposite dilemma for most people who tend to gain it. Then, during the summer I gain it back. Time to head over to the local Chinese buffet for crab legs and spring rolls! |
