very windy out there.My splits were all over the place. I felt like I raced well but in actuality my time was very slow. Hopefully this has more to do with the fact that it was windy and thus times were slow vs. I'm slow because I'm heavy or out of shape. I think it has to do with the wind. It also could have something to do with the fact that I've been stressed and slacking off the last part of last week.

This is actually the slowest I've ever run at this race but I feel like I raced well. That's odd. I was beaten by a Strava track club member, and a guy who used to be on the NYMJ track club. God I hope I can run faster than this at Shamrock.

feel ok this morning, no sign of calf trouble. It feels much better now that I've raced on it. Still ticked at my slow time yesterday. I hope I'm still in good shape going into Shamrock.

decided not to attempt the workout this morning because I was still too beat up from the race. Will try to get in some lighter 400s tomorrow and then do a tempo on Friday

still trying to recover from Sunday. I ran like crap at that race but my legs were still tired today. Getting old I suppose. I just did the short workout the rest of the team did yesterday. The benefit was that I got an extra day of recovery and I can keep my interval recoveries to a reasonable time instead of jogging longer than the interval itself like we end up doing in big groups. Nothing too fast today. 5:12,2:29,2:28,2:27,2:26
