12x400 at Highland HS track today. I am feeling a bit under the weather so I was a little concerned. I was able to run just fine though. There was some beastly wind that made it more difficult but not bad other than that. We did a step-down type work out. First 4 were 77-78, next 4 were 74-75, last four were 71-72. I actually was running the first four in under 77's. We had about 2 mins rest in between I think. At the meet this last week I was shooting for 78's which would put me in the low 16 minute range for the 5k. I hit 80's unfortunately. I figured if I can hit under 78 for all 12 of these with trainers on and in wind without competition, then I can definitely race at a 78 pace or better. Quit being a pansy on race day David! >:O |
