Progression Daily

Today was the first exposure to heat since XC. I forgot how much it wears you down. Started out really slow then after we stopped at Artic Circle I ran fast back.

2 mile warm-up

8 400s in the wind. The 1st, 4th, and 8th were at mile goal pace, the rest at pace now. I kind of wish I ran 2 more just because all day I was expecting 10.

1. 1.13           5. 1.17

2. 1.18           6. 1.16

3. 1.18           7. 1.20

4. 1.14           8. 1.12

(all my times were under pace except #7 was right at pace)

1 1/2 cool down with Fre and Austin.

3 AC this morning with BY, FRE, Austin, and Willy. Ran from some sprinklers and got WAY cold!

AT FULL:

I was tired but I just kept pushing with the help of Jeff for the most part. I think I ran my fastest AT time today even with the wind.

AT time: 20:56

Total time: 27:10

EASY DAY Mile warm-up. Ran an easy 5 with BY,FRE, WILLIS, and COWBOY TROY. We spent a lot of the time kicking a tennis ball around until Willy ruined it.

I thought the team was going to run at 9 but it turned out to be 8. So I slept in and ran on my own at about 1 pm.

5 Sunrise Hills:

1. 1.52

2. 1.52

3. 1.51

4. 1.51

5. 1.46

I felt really tired but I am glad I was consistent. My times were a lot better than last week too.

I was way mad after the Suns lost in Double OT and didn't want to run, but I did anyways. I ran with my brother for the first 2 miles but he was dying so I left and moved up into the Green Springs desert.

Mile Splits:
