AM - 5 at legacy. In the middle I wanted to do a bit at race pace since I'm probably racing in 12 days or so. Did a lap just on feel without looking at my watch at 4:55 pace. Felt pretty controlled, but that's only 12% of the race distance, I'm sure I would have had a lot more trouble sustaining it for the full 5k.

PM - off. Played cards with my parents instead.

AM - 5 easy ending with 4x200 strides, the first 3 I wanted around 37's and the last one I'd just turn over the legs a little. Ran 37, 37, 35, 28 low. I was just mentally coasting on all of them so it was pretty easy mentally and physically. Gonna have a good workout tomorrow, I know I can handle what's on deck but I get the feeling I'm going to have to make my workout on Friday a B- one to compensate for another A+ one tomorrow.

PM - shakeout with a few 150's.

AM - unintentional light work today. 2x mile repeats in 4:48, 4:52. The plan was 5 or 6 of these hard mile repeats, but I looked in my truck after #2 and realized I had maybe a gallon left(it gets less than 10 mpg) and I was about 20-30 miles from the nearest gas station. This freaked me out so I stopped the workout there and drove home, luckily made it. Irritated because with 6 mile repeats you have to take the first couple extra cautious to avoid blowing up, so I could have made them a good bit faster. Oh well. Guess I'll try harder next workout.

2k hitting the mile in 5:18, part of a bigger workout that I pulled. Just have really felt pretty drained and miserable lately from work, which affects the quality of my running, plus I've had to sub in work miles for real ones and that feels pretty bad too.

AM - 5. Felt pretty good, did some strides. Felt good yesterday afternoon too. Probably going to do 50 or 60 miles next week to try and keep the legs light to chase a fast 5k time Friday night, then maybe go back to 80 the week after, if not then work will be over the week after that so I'll definitely have the time to hit 80's.

PM - 4 easy with 3x200 strides in 33, 30, 28.
