AM - 8 Middleton. I had a strange dream last night that when I woke up I was totally rested and felt no pain or tweaks; the reason, my head wasn't attached to my body - but I didn't seem to mind! (Cumulus silver 413.15)
afternoon - 10.25 - 4xcemetery mile. Mile goal going into this was to have a workout that I wouldn't be ashamed to write about. I'm happy to say that things went pretty well (much better than the last two weeks). Ran out to the cemetery with Ruth 2.2. 1-5:23 I started off well, but felt that I wasn't going that fast. Made sure to check my watch at key points on the loop to track progress. When I looked down the first time, I was going much quicker than I thought and found myself come in at a solid time. 2-5:17 Flet a bit better on this one and kind of held back as I wanted to make sure all 4 miles were okay not just 2. 3-5:25, time slipped a little (my weak spot is the uphill on Telegraph, hard time in the loop to have to push), but I was happy that I was able to work it well enough to stay right in there. 4-5:27, started off strong knowing that I was going to lose some time at the end, but I lost a little more than I thought. I was pretty winded at the end. However, that fatigue is okay to deal with when you have reached a goal. Like I said, much much better than last week. Hit 6x100barefoot grass striders and a little more barefooting at the soccer field and then brought it home for the total mileage. (Precision 305.4)
