So, when Bill says we have practice at the oval every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday; he just means last Monday and Wednesday. Otherwise, I went out to the oval today with my mom to do a speed workout. I started with 4 laps warm up and 4 laps speed changes. Then I changed into my new shoes and did the workout. My workout was 400, 800, and 400 with equal recovery. My times went 87, 3:03, and 85. On the 800 I went around the 400 at like 100 seconds and I wanted to get all of my times under a 6 minute mile again, so on the last 400 I really picked up the pace, then going around the final turn I started feeling really sick so I of course slowed down and that is what made my time slip. Otherwise I did a good 800. For the last 400 I was feeling sick the entire time, but I just pushed it hard then with like 20 meters left I felt like I was going to puke so I slowed down a few seconds, otherwise that was a good one also. I was not that tired after these I was just feeling sick. I have not done speed like this in a while. Then I did 4 laps cooldown. Finally I stretched while my mom was talking to me about the run. Overall a fun ALONE speed workout. PM: Tonight, I went on a slow recovery 2 mile run. Overall it was a hard and painful out and back run. I did not like it at all. |
