3.5 in the morning. i was a little more late than usual.
6x800 at "1600 pace". I haven't ran it yet so i was just going with a time my goal was to go from 4;40 pace to 4:30 pace. for lunch i had 2 pears and it gave me the runs :(, so my stomach was hurting from the warm-ups to post practice lifting. 10 minutes of warm up which i think is not enough. first one was 2:23. next one was 2:23. man this was frustrating. i thought about it for a minute and decided on doing 600s to hit the pace told nick and skylar about it cuz we weren't hitting out times. next one was a 1:45, then a 1:44. i was content i knew i should moved up to 700 meters on the next one, but the 5th one ended up being a 1:42. i was dead set on getting a sub 2:20. I was doing a good job of negative' or even splitting the 2nd half so i continued that way i hit 1:10 at 400, 1:45 at 600, and 2:20 at 800. i was satisfied. with spikes and more people racing i know i can get a sub 4:33.
left achilles felt very tender after iced it and was good. Weber finally emailed me. sub 1:56 is whay they told me. I'm feeling good :)
practice hand-offs with samson for our medley its gonna be a good race duking it out with uintah's medley team this week. They're good and we're good. we both can get under 3:38.
