SO today was supposed to be just a normal workout day, and thats what I was thinking as I went into it. But it was much much more...
To start - it was 2 degrees this morning when I checked at 9:00. I think it was like 7 when we went to practice. We did an 18 minute warm up and it was FREEZING! Then we got started on the workout, which was supposed to be 3x400 at 2 sec slower than 800 goal pace, then 3x400 at 2 mile goal pace, then 3x400 at the 800s again. SO we did that, and the first set was a bit iffy - I think it went 68, 72, 73? Then the 200s were something like 88,90, 89, then 72, 74, 74. These all felt good - especially because of all the reset! (jog back recovery)! Then we ended up having to do two more sets- so we did - the 2 mile ones were something like 88, 90, 87? And the 400's were 74, 75, 73. (I'm not quite sure about the times for all of them). But this workout lasted a total of 7.5 miles, and around 70 minutes. We then cooled down for 16 minutes to bring it to a nice 104 minute run. WOW! That's a longggggggg time! But I feel fine and not that tired, so its nice!
Morning pulse: 12
