Notes
This workout did not go as planned (6 X 800). I started at Fun Junktion, the 1.25 mile park loop next to the landfill. 2.5 mile warm up. Interval 1 in 3:30, Interval 2 in 3:36. Legs felt fantastic and strong, but breathing and stomach were way off from how I usually feel during this workout. I felt queasy and weak. I thought maybe it was the bit of trash smell from the landfill, so drove to the Y to try there. After another easy mile did Interval 3 in 3:36 but felt just as bad, except my legs which felt fantastic during the speedwork. My stomach, breathing, and sweat rate were way off from usual. So I just finished the planned mileage at an easy pace, and can't remember the last time I was so happy to be done with a run.
I'm sure this is hormone-related. :( I'll just keep doing the best I can.
