Today my morning was different than usual, because of the activities the night before. My daughter is in a fast-pitch softball tournament where she had two back to back games (they won the first one and lost the next, and their the top seed). We never got home until after 9pm and still didn't have dinner yet. We ordered pizza and I was so hungry I had eight pieces. The last time I ate was 1pm in the afternoon so I downed them like I was in an eating contest. Tonight we have same situation where she has two games again, but I will eat healthier tonight, I haven't been doing that lately. The food I ate last night felt like it was stuck in my ribs this morning, and I wanted to do speed work on the track. It took me 4 miles to warm-up, because my stomach felt very heavy. I did 8 x 400 with a pretty decent jog of 200s in between, not really what you would call a rest. I was keeping track of my splits on my IronMan watch and I messed up. The first split was 1:23 and the next was 1:26, 1:20, and the rest were messed up. Then I did some MP miles (6:33, 6:27, 6:41, 6:24 and a cool-down 6:55). Totals 12.1 miles at an overall pace of 6:30. My daughter's team messed up bad where they should have won both games, but they can redeem themselves tonight and still win the championship. I told her just have fun. What watch would you recommend to keep track of spilts on a track? I ran .3 with my daughter tonight.
