Stayed home sick from work today - this bug is hanging around in my stomach... Slept in til about 9a, ate some IHOP breakfast to see if it would stick. It did - thank god. Let that settle and went for an easy 2 mi. w/ dog (who has also been sick) around noon. Waited around the house until about 4p and decided to put in some kind of workout. The current goal is a 17:30 5k in one of the upcoming local races. Any suggestions on better speed building exercises from anybody reading this? here's what i did this afternoon (and have been completing similar for the last couple weeks): 2mi. jog to local track w/ strides, 4x200m w/ 200m rec. - 38, 36, 35, 34, 2x400m w/ 400m rec. - 74, 73, 1mi. jog back toward the house, last 1mi. - 5:55 6 mi. total - 48:00 easy 2 mi. after dinner w/ dog - yahh! he finally pooped!! :)
