Last big workout till Foot Locker. 8X800's suppose to hit 230, 225, 220, 215, 230, 225, 220, 210 with a 400 meter jog break inbetween. I was stoked for the workout then got out to the track and saw that half of it was covered with water and I had a headwind on the backstretch that didn't really help me as much on the homestretch and it was still raining. Decieded to do it anyways and see what i could do and have fun splashing throught the water. I would be a challenge and help me if something comes up like this at foot locker.
I took 5 seconds off the times, because that is about how much they were off with the stuff, maybe a little more but 5 is good.
1- 2:31- equivelant to 2:26 a little to fast
2- 2:26- 2:21 still to fast
3- 2:23-2:18still to fast, could not get into a rythm at the begging and was to antsy and running to fast.
4- 2:21- 2:16 almost right on
-9 for the first half then the second half i could not keep it and ran slower, so made me really mad, i need to stop starting hard and have nothing left at the end, getting better with my training helping me keep it though.
5- 2:35- 2:30 right on
6- 2:30- 2:25 right on
7- 2:29- 2:24 a little slow
8- 2:21- 2:16 really slow which made me really mad i could not pull out a faster split
+10 on the second half so all together i wall only +1 for the total time which made me feel good and see that i had an okay workout, considering all the crap in my way for the workout. Still think i am ready for foot locker and know i can push through rough times, I am getting really excited and can't wait to go do something. |
