2.75 mile warm up 8x1000m w 200m recovery 3.5 cool down The big, scary track interval workout. I haven't touched anything like this since the summer of 2008 and have been scared to do so because of a hamstring injury that I think was the result of such workouts... anyways I felt like a lamb going to the slaughter as we walked onto the track. However once we got rolling things felt pretty decent and the workout turned out to be positive. One plus to begin with was temps were low again... like 60 F and there was no wind really. So I kind of like the track at Desert Hills High because of that first impression. 1. 3:13 trying to get a feel for the workout 2. 3:11 picked it up 3. 3:09 decide this would be the fastest one 4. 3:10 5. 3:10 6. 3:10 in a nice groove trying to see light at the end of this tunnel. 7. 3:12 I told Logan before this one began that it would be hard... and it was. 8. 3:08 Wanted to end on a positive and even though it was hard and the legs were heavy the time turned out o.k. Solid workout in the bank. Glad I got one in just incase I decide to not do them ever again. Came home to some sad news. I went to check on the chickens and found that one of them got eaten last night by a predator. I forgot to close the sliding door and something went in and ate our Lady bird. We have 6 chickens right now and she was the most like a "pet". The other five all were upstairs in the nest area. But Lady wouldn't go up at night. She was a sweet heart. Everyday I'd go pick her up and give her loves. She'd even come when called by her name. It's pretty sad... the poor girl didn't have a chance. I decided I'm not a very good farmer. Hopefully now with these five other birds we can have no more deaths and have a nice safe coop.
