Today, I procrastinated into doing my speed workout out; that is, I headed home after work, did some studying, then finally decided at 9:00 pm that I needed to get this workout over with. Consequently, I covered 3.5 miles by running around the neighborhood and up to Olympus High School. Then I knocked out a Yasso 400s workout on the track. This time I did 12 intervals of running a threshold pace 400 then jogging a 200. My 400 splits were as follows: 1:21, 1:18, 1:19, 1:18, 1:19, 1:19, 1:20, 1:20, 1:18, 1:19, 1:20, and 1:19. Even though my range was only 4 seconds, the same as my Yasso 400s on Saturday, my average pace was 2 to 6 seconds slower on my 400s and recovery 200s (i.e., 1:19 and 1:16), respectively. I completed this tough workout by jogging 2.7 miles back home and it felt great that I did not succumb to laziness by personally justifying the postponement of this speed training!
Lastly, for my non-running workout, I completed 300 sit-ups and 30 push-ups. |
