Met up with BCHS crew for "k's". They opted to do it on the track, as the weather looked a bit iffy.
After warm-up/stretching and pickups:
Did 8 x 1ks @ 6:44 with 1 min jogging break and one lap jog after 4. Felt great and conversational. goal was for the crew to do this at around tempo pace, just to get the legs moving. brandon completed 10 and said he felt great!
Did mine with Dalton to get him ready for his Half marathon debut! He plans to start out at 6:44 and just see how it goes. I went to register only to find out that the Rock Canyon is SOLD OUT?? UGH! I'm glad Dalton pre-registerd...looking for an alternative.
Just saw that Carlsbad is sold out for January as well. I have not hit the sub-elite time yet, so had planned to just register (meaning pay) and just see how it goes. Seems like my half plans are dwindling by the second.
Finished off workout with Core and med ball throws (mostly shot put). Should be nice and sore tomorrow.
Ankle update (sprained 3 weeks ago tomorrow)-Forgot to calf stretch exercises and so annoying click was back all through workout. not really pain, just clicking. Danny explained that its the tight calf muscle + loose front ligaments forcing the calcaneous bone to jut, thereby causing ligs to rub--thus the clicking. might have overdone the calf stretching later though as I am definitely sore. |
