AM: Springside Academy Track - 10.25 miles total w/ 3 x 1 mile CVish w/ 400 recovery + 2 x 400 (hard) w/ 70 second rest
Warmed up 3.25 (including 1 fall), did 2 x 200 strides and some quick active stretches. It was already in the low 80s. Guess I didn't learn my less from early this week (some cooler nights next week are coming!). Didn't really know what I was going to do for a workout even when I started the repeat. Originally mile repeats, then 800s given the warm temps, then I decided to do a handful of repeats (to the point of falling off) then some hard intervals for leg speed. I had to deal with walker texters in lane 1 and old dude running 400s in ~4:00. Good times. An okay warm weather workout.
3 x 1600: 5:58, 6:00, 5:55
short break, then
2 x 400: 73.1, 76.9
Cooled down 2.5
Needed to concentrate on the second one but didn't. Needed to keep the head up and keep moving but I missed it. I was pretty gassed at the end of the second. Got some miles for the morning, the heart rate up, and the legs turning. Call it a moderate success.
PM: Treadmill - 5.25 miles next to Megan. I finished and watched her try to tackle the 9-minute gal. The oldest looking treadmill is the most accurate and the fastest. Did some light strides to test it. 5:30ish felt like 5:30 or close enough.
