My calves are incredibly sore from Saturday (3 miles in spikes will do that to you - especially if you normally don’t wear spikes). My legs are still dead tired from last week too, but we didn’t do much last week so? Kind of feel like I’m running myself into the ground if I’m being honest. This week is a week of effort soooo I’m just gonna die. I might talk to coach and ask for a day of recovery tomorrow if I still feel like this.
Today’s workout was 2x1000 with 1 minute rest after both, 2x800 with 90 seconds rest, 2x500s with 2:00 rest, 2x200s with 3 minutes rest. Pace increases as the intervals get shorter, 200s all out. Goal for the 1000s were 3:30-3:45. I hit 3:32, 3:45. Goal for 800s was 2:50-3:00, hit 3:23. Then coach told me to cool down. I’m kind of discouraged but at the same time I’m so dead tired and know I wouldn’t have been able to get the quality out of the workout like I needed if I kept going.
Weights later, today the workout increased.
