Battling flu, but was nice to get out for an easy 5, made me feel better

Simls Lake - Finally got a break in the rain ... 6 @ 7:30 pace with strides on uphills, with 1 mile cool-down.  Should have held the pace & skipped the cooldown, as it started raining 1 minute from my car ... oh well ... I am sure cold rain will help my sickness!  Was glad I was able to get out there.

52 & Sunny - Duluth HS Track

Had to alter track plan a little, because half of track was in use when I got there ... not that I ever adhere to a track plan!  Was going to just do a 400/800/1600/800/400 ... but had to switch to strides until track cleared.

No warm-up, started with (16) 100 meter strides

29, 26, 23, 22, 20, 19, 19, 18, 18, 18, 18, 18, 19, 18, 19, 20

(4) 200m:  39, 40, 40, 40 (this is my target mile pace)

(3) 400m:  75, 80, 82 (last one was going to be an 800m, but I decided I had done enough speed work for one day ... this was intended as a light day, not a hard workout)

I decided to pass on the 800m & 1600m, but for kicks timed myself for 100m & 200m at end.

100m:  14.4     200m: 31.2  (pretty sure I can run these faster at the start of a workout with Alex lined up next to me, even though I know he can crush me at these short distances!)

Cooldown

Debating a hilly 10k Sat, not sure if I could PR, but would help me get 6 fast miles in ... as I have a hard time going sub 7's on training runs on my own!

Plan was to run 6 fast this morning ... slept in til 8:30 ... went to son's basketball game ... and really did not want to run all day.  Forced myself out just before dark for 3 hard, semi-fast miles ... oh well, at least I got out!

7:07, 7:25, 7:15, short cool down.
