8 miles with 4 miles alternating the pace per mile in the middle at 9PM. I really don't know how to define the paces. Miles 1 & 3 were on the easier side of hard. Miles 2 and 4 were on the harder side of easy. 5:45, 6:29, 5:33, 5:31. Last one hit around a 3 flat 800, a 4:20 1200, and closed in a 71 400m. I had sharp chest pains the first two miles before going hard and my stomach felt really bad so I was debating scrapping the workout altogether(the original plan was 8 miles alternating). I felt extremely sick to my stomach all throughout the 8 miles(and today, that's why no run until now) so I'm happy I was able to close pretty quickly by the end of it. 6:12 avg pace.

3 miles to tire myself out before bed at 2AM. Closed with a 5:39, so there goes that.

Been super busy with exams lately. squeezed in 6 at 10PM w/ 2 half miles fast in the middle, separated by probs 5-ish minutes of jogging. My watch died so I had no run with my phone on the strava app, but I had to unlock my phone and navigate the app mid-800, so that took some of my energy that should have been spent on the 800's. 2:25 and 2:26.

Another 2 AM run. 2 brisk miles to warm up. Hill strides. 3x200, 2x300, 1x400. Equal recovery jog. 33, 35, 34, 50, 52, 69. Cleared out all Halloween candy out of the pantry around 11, which meant lots sickness. Really started feeling it in the 400. Cooled down for 5 at 6:15 avg pace. Race tomorrow! Nathan and I are driving up to Birmingham and going go-karting after.

Another 2 miles in the afternoon. Chest pains. Usually they fade after two miles.

Stayed up until about 1:30 bc I'm really bad at ending conversations. After that couldn't go to sleep until 3, where I got up and ate my salad and drank some water. I figured since I'd be waking up in two hours, I didn't need to plug my phone back in(I usually have it play a podcast to lull me to sleep. Woke up at 1PM. The race started at 8AM.

Took another Strava CR down. Grocery run. .4 miles, 2.x% uphill grade. I ran a 2:06 which beat out the record of 2:18
