Yayayayayaya for finishing freaking hard workouts and feeling amazing afterwards!!!!!!! so today we did a mile warm and thennnnnnnnn 15x400 with an all-out mile after. we kinda split the 400's into different speeds. the first 5 i was consistently around 87/88 and we had 45 second rest. i could have gone a bit faster, but i didnt know how my body was going to feel on the last ones, so i kinda chilled and just wanted to hit the back end of the pace window. im glad i did. the next 5 i hit 84/85 which was right at the tail end of pace again. i hit 85 twice, which was a second slow, but it was still ok. we had 60 seconds recovery on these ones. The next 5 we had 90 seconds recovery. i hit 83's pretty consistenly which was good and once again at the tail end of the window. but im glad i chilled the first half of the workout because even though i was a few seconds behind the main group of girls the first half, i was still in the window and by the last ones i was with the group the whole time and picking off some of the girls who started too fast. Then we had 90 seconds recovery and then an all out mile!! i hit a 6:20 which isnt awful, but not great. then i cooled to 9 with sam.
Shoutout to Angie for literally hitting my pr in the mile after 15 400's haha. shes so fast i hope i can be as fast as her someday.
Also props to me for being one of only 5 girls to finish the whole workout. that made me really happy actually. I know im progressing and im so excited to see what i can accomplish with running.
