AM: Met @Scott's house this morning. Had Matt, Scott, Reed and Mike on the run. Tough group when these guys have eye of the tiger mode in them. I knew going into this morning that I wanted to do some leg turnover. I don't know if I can call it tempo but I wanted to get in 2-3 miles of it during the run. During the WU I could feel what I thought was all four adductor areas. I know my adductor magnus is tendor but now I can tell the IIiacus is bad also. Makes sense with everything I have done the last few weeks. My body is just trying to overcompensate for faster paces and speeds that I am doing. I definitely felt depleted at the 4 mile mark but decided I needed to suck it up and not wuss out. Felt gassed after a mile slowed down for about .15 miles and the gradually picked up again. I felt better and then heard who was Reed coming up from behind and glad he came up on me. It forced me to mentally to get back in pace mode. I stayed about 10 secs behind him through mile 2. At about 2.3 the rest of the pack came flying by. At 2.5 miles my legs were done(splits for "tempo" 5:47., 5:55, 6:22) I didn't do what I wanted to do for this part of the workout so then I made sure I stayed under 7 min pace for the rest of the run which felt a little tough. Good run just wish I was a little stronger on this run today. A little discouraging but build from here. Another gorgeous morning... Weights: Shoulders, Dips, Abs... |
