My Miles

3 in the morning...5 in the afternoon.  This run was horrible.  It was so hot and I did not drink enough water to get me through it.  I went really slow on the striders...I just felt like I didn't have anything else to give.  I know better than that.

4x3 minute repeats with 3 min recovery.  I am way sore from weights yesterday.  This was sort of a messed up run.  We started together, but by the second one we couldn't hear the timer, so we went too far.  Coach let us borrow his watch, so we were able to finish that accurately (ish).  Coach's inspirational speech almost (ALMOST) made me want to do one more repeat so I could show that my pain threshold isn't really as low as it seems.  Ah well.  I will just kick it in the butt tomorrow. 

AM-3 miles.  Ran by myself again, and enjoyed it!  I was able to get a few kinks out of my legs.  I love morning runs!

PM-5.5 miles 3x2min repeats, 4x400s.  This was a really good workout.  My legs were really sore and tight.  Once I got going though, I was able to not be freaked out by the pain that I would inflict on myself.  Eventually they worked themselves out. I took Coach Robert's advice to take them one at a time, and to push as a hard as possible on each one.  Weirdly enough, it worked.:)  My 400 splits went 2:00, 2:00, 1:55, and 1:53.  I was able to stay positive.

AM-Easy 3 miles with striders.  I did my workout in the morning so I could go to pit rehearsal.
