AM - 12.25 2xDirt Mile. Ran the Parkway for a warm up. Could tell that the legs were a little tired from yesterday's higher mileage - just reminds me that I need to take it easy and not get to antsy trying to get back into shape. Did a two mile Tinman on the Dirt Mile. It felt easy and difficult at the same time (as did my miles); kind of like my body knew that pace and knew that it wasn't that hard, but I am just not in shape to really do it right now though. Did the miles in 5:28 and 5:33. Felt pretty sick at the end of the 2nd - like I wanted to throw up. Had to remind myself that it has been over a month of very easy running with no workouts other than a short tempo or two. So it is a starting point. I'll take this afternoon off to let the legs keep (especially achilles) keep progressing, not regressing. Did finish up with the block and 5xgirl hills with Rylee (she really killed me today - I think she could break 2:40 pretty easily if the weather is good and she believes in herself. What that will place her, I have no idea). (Rocket 676) |
