Notes
Temp 71 Wind 12 mph.
Long Run with Stuff. Warm and windy. Set up base at the Jr. High. Notice my attitude is in a good place this morning.
1) 2.35 miles at 8:32 average pace down to the park.
2) 6 x Hill Repeats.
3) 1.97 miles back to Jr. High at 8:34 average pace.
4) Head to track for about 15:00 minutes of drills and strides.
Change shoes, pop a couple of Glukos, and take off for five laps in each direction at AT.
5) 2.85 miles at 7:08 average pace. 10:00ish minute splits of 7:13 / 7:04. Don't think I broke stride once in last 10:00 minutes.
Jog a recovery lap, take quick hydration break, pop another Glukos, then back on the track to see what kind of intervals I can drop nine miles deep into my day. Lane 8, 200 jogs after each.
6) 2 x 200 (6:32/6:33)
7) 2 x 400 (6:27/6:26)
8) 2 x 600 (6:22/6:23)
Got mechanically locked in on first 200 and never lost it.
9) 1.60 miles at 8:32 average pace. Cool down jog after changing back into Vazees. Damn good day and did not feel stressful or high impact. Two quarters, four dimes, and twelve pennies.
