Whatever is causing my computer to "Time Out" is really driving me nuts. I write this informative entry and then it is gone, and I never want to write it all out again. But I put something for later reference:

noon - 12 x 400's. 3.3. warm up on 2450 and legs felt dog-tired. A post long-run hangover. did some agilities and active stretching to try and get something in my legs. With no response, I decided to break the 4's into 3 sets of 4 to try and finish the workout (something I didn't do last time I did 4's). Took a 200 jog (1+ min) between reps and a little longer between sets. 1:17, 1:17, 1:18, 1:19 (felt slow and sluggish); 1:17, 1:18, 1:19, 1:22 (wind was breezy, but it was dominating me); 1:16, 1:17, 1:16, 1:16 (not sure how I got quicker times - just the idea of finishing up I guess - because I was really struggling on form). .75 Big Loop cool down. Overall didn't feel that great about the workout. These times really should all be at or just below 1:15. Next week I will have a better one. (Cumulus 317.7)

evening - 6 on MillCreek Trail.  Recovery run to the extreme.  Still a bit cooler out, so I hoped to  see a tortoise and not a snake, but nothing.  Took it very easy and tried to allow my legs to recover, but it didn't seem to do any good.  (Landreth 150.1)

Here is the problem with today.  I misread my workouts and today should have been an easy day with speed tomorrow.  Well, I guess that just makes the end of the week a little easier and hopefully I can get my legs back.
