AM - 11 4xCemetery miles. Last major interval session this morning. Warmed up with 5 miles on the Parkway and then got into my miles. Wasn't sure what would happen after last weekend's run but having a few days to get the legs back. 1-5:15, this totally surprised me. I felt strong, but not like I was ripping it up; in fact, I backed off a little and didn't feel totally warmed up yet. 2-5:17, the first one scared me a little. I was worried that it was much too quick and I would struggle the rest, so I backed off a little and thought I would be low 20's - so the time again surprised. 3-5:14, pushed a little and I was also a little tired. 4-5:12, finished up strong and pleased with the overall workout. At the same time, I still am worried the workout; was it too strong, did I push too much? I think those are just pre-race jitters however. Cooled with just over a mile with a long way home and had to hurry to get to practice started and a dang all-day school meeting. (Last Ohana 131.5) |
