AM: Freezing cold rainy weather. Not so great to run in. It's awesome that it rained, but when you have to run in it at 6 in the morning when it's super cold, not so fun. We went down to 13th and to south temple, then up V street? I don't really know I just followed the pack. When we hit the road the cemetery's on we turned left and went up death hill. I was feeling good up until south temple, so I really wasn't feeling great. I did stop and walk for a bit, but of course Bill caught me, I didn't even see him in the dark. Then we did the shriner's run back, and I just tried to catch Bill, who I now knew was there and could pick out where he was. I spent the rest of the run just trying to catch up. I never did, but I caught Emma who was with him for a while. I stopped at 5.25 PM: Bill got there literally right as I got there. Nice surprise. That meant we would be done early! :) Mile warmup and a mile speed changes. I did them pretty fast actually. I was feeling good :) We weren't told the entire workout, just that we had to hit an 800 at a certain time. I was to hit 3:10. Then when we finished he'd say to stay consistent and hit the next 800. By then I was thinking we were doing 8 800s, so when he said last 800 I was soooo happy!! 1 lap in between each. I hit 3:06, 3:06, 3:06. but that didn't mean we were done with speed. He said we were now going to do 400s. He didn't say how many. These felt great after the 800s! I also learned what it feels like to go to your arms because I paid attention to that when I got tired. I was supposed to hit 92s. The stupid football players kept getting in my way and mocking us. That was the only downer. I hit 87, 87, 84, 84. Then he said we were doing 200s. I love 200s!!! Except this was where I was starting to feel not so great. Same deal with the not knowing what we're doing part. I was supposed to hit 40s. I hit 39, 39, 40, 39. Then we did 2 grass laps cool down. |
