I warmed up 3 miles and ended up at the Taylorsville High track. Lucky me, there was a high school p.e. class "working out" on the track. I want to be a high school p.e. teacher. It doesn't take any work. My favorite was the girl sitting on the grass, strenuously applying her makeup for the entire hour. Then, there was the half-dressed girl who decided to sprint 100 meters right in front of me, and then abruptly stopped at the corner, while I kept going. Yes, we collided. At least Half Dressed Girl was actually working out a little bit. And, of course a touch-football game was going on between the Shirts and Skins. (Should I have told them that in 15-20 years those high school muscles will most likely be replaced by middle-aged love handles?) Anyway, I started with 4 x 200 as an extended warm-up while I dodged the p.e. class, who were jogging (walking) a mile. Of course they were spread out across the track. My workout was 1 mile, 2 x 800, and 4 x 400 1 mile: 5:49 800 recovery 800's: 2:49, 2:49 400 recoveries 400's : 81, 81, 80, 81 1:20 standing recovery I cooled down 1.25 miles. I still felt a little tired, but not as bad as yesterday. I don't feel strong, though. Time to add more core and upper body exercises. |
