Warmup was a bit different today. We did the track warmup (cut drills a little short) and then a mile speed changes and a couple more laps, then 6 asphalt hill strides. Then 2x1000, 2x800, 2x400, 3x200. I hit 3:28, 3:27, 2:45, 2:49, 74, 75, 34, 34, 34. I struggled a lot today, I focused on staying with Diwas and Bill. The second 800 I had fallen off. But I refocused and tried to hit the rest on pace. The 200s I relaxed first 100 and kicked last 100, it was the first time I actually switched gears into the fast twitch muscles I think? But it was the first time I could feel the switch turn on. I doubted myself 20 meters later and backed off, now that I know what it REALLY feels like I think if I continue to work on it I will have the kick down! It was windy so that was kind of tough. Good workout.
