Today was pretty hard. I talked to Coach Griggs because I have been sleeping 11ish hours a night the last few nights. I feel like my energy is fine once I'm awake but it's hard to get up. Today on the workout the first two mile tempo felt good. I was acutally focusing on trying to stay relaxed as I could instead of just trying to hang which was good. But about a mile through the second tempo it got pretty tough and I probably would have fell off but Caleb and Devin wouldn't really let me which was good. The last mile tempo I was actually surprised because I felt like I got a bit of a second wind. I didn't feel great but I was able to stay with it.
I was real tired after the 2nd and 3rd reps though. Honestly the cooldown was really hard today because I was just tired. Maybe the fueling station opening next week will be helpful because maybe I'm just not eating enough. I will sleep great tonight though. I have been taking my one a day supplement so I don't think Iron is the issue.
I will say today not feeling good, and being able to hang on shows me I am in good shape, but I've got to better figure out how to fuel and treat my body so I can feel great when it's time to go hard.
One last side note: My groin/hips felt great today. I will keep stretching them and keeping in contact with Paul but that was a good sign. I went in before the run to put some heat on it and that was good.
