5 miles in the morning. I'm not allowed to leave the hotel bc Dallas, so I had to run on the treadmill. Tried to do a tempo and failed. Just wasn't feeling it. Did some good core though.
PM - Warmed up to the nearby episcopal school, and found the track. Legs were tired from the start from 8 hours of drive/little sleep/afternoon humidity. Workout was 3×(4x400m). 2 minute standing recovery between repeats, 2 laps jog in between. My watch was dead so I had to use my phone timer, which probably slowed me down a bit. First set went 69, 67, 68, 68. Next went 68, 68, 68. At this point I noticed my phone was about to die so I decided this would be my last 400. Hit the 300m at 44-45, but then the I just hit a wall and jogged it in for 64. My phone died, so I did a mile on the track striding on the straights, did some more strides on the grass, and cooled down the way I warmed up for 10 for the day. I got some new shoes, Nike zoom structure 18's for 29.99.
