AM: 5 easy + alt. core routine, stretch, foam rolling
PM: Beer Mile Training session #1. 3 miles total
Went to the official beer mile training session. I took rought splits for the drinking times. The loop we ran was .47 miles, about double the distance of the actual beer mile lap. I drank a beer for the first, then two seltzer waters and finally a Budweiser. All I can say is controlled belching is a must while running and it's going to be hard to run very fast in that last lap because I'm going to be sloshed. I've not chugged a beer like that since college and it hit me hard. I only had two beers! seltzer water was good practise because the carbonation was a lot worse than the beer. Running effort was not that crazy, some tempoish efforts.
Beer/seltzer rough splits: 28, 32, 34, 54 seconds. I really need to work on getting this below 25 seconds. If I run a 4:50 mile for the running portions that's like a 6:36 if all drinking is 25 seconds. I'll have to actually do the distance in my next beer mile training session next weekend.
