AM- MICHIGANS! Woke up early to get in the workout. I felt really good this morning...really fresh. We started out with the 800m and I think we were on for that. The first 800m always feels easy. The 3 loops of 800 loop were at 10k pace and they felt easy for once too. The 2nd 800 is usually where I die off, but this time I actually pushed it and led for a bit. The last 3x800m at 10k pace were harder, but still not hard physically...just mentally. Everytime I fell off mike even a little I pushed mentally to speed up. And when it was down to the last 400m all out I psyched myself out right before it. I did it fast, but I think I coulda stuck with mike. Anyway I ended with a 24:23 which is a 1:30 faster than last time and coach said this is 30 seconds slower (cause last time we did it all on the track). So, this was awesome cause it proves I can run close to mike in a race and really helps push towards my goals!
PM- 3 easy barefoot at 2450. Calves were tight but I felt good. |
