Love2Run

About 7 miles at a good pace.

The Ekiden season is coming to an end for our teams.  Because I was still recovering from a broken ankle at the beginning of the season I was not on any of the racing teams.  Since it is the end of the season, and we will be moving toward track season, Coach had interviews with everyone today to find out what races we want to run.  I told Coach that I wanted to run the 800m and 1500m and maybe 3000m.  Coach thinks I would be better at the 5000m or 10000m.  I need to make a decision because the training groups will differ depending on what races I run.

Ran an easy 5K and then did 3 miles of hill bounding.

Went to the dentist this afternoon, so I didn't go to practice and run.  No running today but did have a cavity. :(

Ran 5 x 500m with 500m jogging in between.  We were divided into three groups.  I was in the slow group.  Our goal was to run each 500m in 1:40.  My times were all over the place, with the fastest one (the last one) in 1:36 and the slowest one (first one) in 1:43.  I wasn't satisfied with my times.  I have been slack and haven't had much motivation recently.   Somehow I need to get the excitement back.

After we ran 6 x 400m hill sprints.  Coach always has us run hill sprints after a hard workout.

About 10 easy miles with Megumi and Yuki.  The longest I have run in a long time.  It was nice and easy and we had a lot of fun.
