1 mile warm up.

2 miles in 13:01. ( A little slower than yesterday.  It was raining hard during the run, so that might have been the reason for the slower time, plus I was not too excited to be out running in the rain.  It was warm though, about 14C.)

1 mile cool down.

I have been looking at our track meet schedule.  We have some small meets, then we have some qualifying meets for qualifying in the Prefectural Championship meet.  Those who do well in the Prefectural Championship meet move on to the Regional Championship meet, and those who do well there get to run in the National Championship meet.

In looking at last years time, the top eight times ranged from:

Prefectural Championship Meet (Kanagawa Prefecture)

800m:   2:13.77 to 2:15.71

1500m: 4:26.90 to 4:34.22

Region Championship Meet (Kanto Region)

800m:   2:09.91 to 2:20.09

1500m: 4:24.42 to 4:28.83

National Championship Meet

800m:   2:07.98 to 2:13.11

1500m: 4:17.17 to 4:20.72

Those are the times I have to aim at.  I think I might have a good chance of making it to the Prefecture meet.  After that I am not sure.

The first qualifying meet will be on April 13, and then another meet on April 20, 21.  I need to get ready by then.

Rainy day here today.  Staying home and watching the Tokyo Marathon on TV.  It is cold and wet, I would hate to be running this this weather.

Ran 4 easy miles today.  I haven't been feeling well the last couple of days.  Must have gotten a stomach bug from somewhere.
