Notes
Had an awesome workout with Heidi Skildum in City Prairie this morning.
4x1000m repeats at (in Heidi's words) Fast, Faster, Faster, Fastest
3:58
3:48
3:40
3:32
Definitely feeling the work by the last one.
Awesome workout, felt great, and the temperature and scenery were glorious. Started in the dark a little before 6, and each piece brought with it a little more daylight. Low hanging fog reflected the pink and yellow colors of the sky onto the bluffs and into the valley, the clouds were illuminated purple, and the air was crisp. We ended the workout delightfully wet, somewhat from sweat but mostly from the cool and refreshing dew that clung to us from the brush and stems stretching out into our lanes as we flew by. The perfect morning for cross country, and the perfect way to start the day. Wouldn't have changed one thing.
The clouds aligned and somehow I was able to keep up with Heidi and we alternated leading pieces. Haven't gone that fast in a while and I realize I missed it. Fast workouts, what fun, and so exhilarating. Was on a high all morning and through the afternoon.
The team is headed to Van Peenen for their workouts today, I plan to run out there and maybe back, depending upon how I feel, to stretch out the legs and loosen up after a really solid effort this morning.
