Late night practice when I got home (Bill is awesome like that- he arranges practice so I can make it) out at the oval. 8 laps warmup, 4 laps speed changes then changed shoes, another lap and to the mile start. Workout was a mile (not 1600), then 3 sets of 4x300s with recovery back to the start between each, a lap between sets. I was supposed to hit 5:40 for the mile but hit 5:44, then 60s for the 300s and hit 1) 60, 60, 60, 61. 2) 62, 61, 57, 59. 3) 57, 56, 58, 58. I sort of ate muddy buddies in the car, maybe not the best thing to eat before a workout. Really made me sick, on literally every repeat I felt I was gonna puke. I hate puking so I was holding back a bit, mentally I think it was getting to me the second set, then Bill made a comment about needing to hit these to break 5:20 on Saturday and I decided I didn't care if I puked anymore. I'm kinda surprised I got myself to turn things around but happy about it. And bonus- I never did puke. Cooled down to 12. Did core at home.
