mile repeats today. had no pop in my legs, kind of dead so i had to get it started on no adrenaline. Still ended up with a decent workout, 5:35, 5:36, 5:31, with 3 minutes off between each.

Woke up to the sound of rolling thunder, usually a comforting morning sound. Thought I might be able to beat the rain, but i was way wrong. very light stuff through about 3.75 then with about 1.25 to go it just opened up and i got completely soaked. Kind of fun but kind of not. Lightning got a little to close for comfort as well.explains my last mile's pick-up in speed. splits:

1- 7:33.6

2- 7:13.2

3- 7:07.9

hills today. very hard workout. did 2 massive uphill sprints of about .3 mile in length, then ran 8x400 on rolling gravel roads. Then finished up with 2 more giant uphills. Completely beat after the workout, ice bath was in order.
