Training Log Archive: Sandy

Better than nothing!

Met with some folks at the Schuylkill Center. There may be some hope for a red course after all. Although "red" just means longer than green. If it happens, it will have a lot of climb.

TNT - Media. Decided on a warm up, then run 3 miles worth of one lap run, one lap jog, then a cool down. I figured the hard laps needed to be a good bit slower than last week if I was going to just jog one lap in between. I wasn't sure what I would be able to do given how slow I was Tuesday but I figured anything under 3 for the jogs and 2:30 for the runs would be okay but I was hoping for 2:40 and 2:20.
5:11 - walk over to the track
2:52 - warm up

9:05 - walked a lap, then did some stretching
5:20 - jogged two more laps just to keep warm
4:49 - walk back to the car

Stunned that I was that consistent and ran those times. I just tried to push the "run" laps so I was working hard but not too hard, knowing I didn't want to walk in between. Another good workout.

When I ran the two laps after stretching I felt very light on my feet - a "spring in my step" sort of feeling. I didn't go particularly fast, but it was still a pretty cool feeling.

Weight is out of control again. It's supposed to be going down. :(

Also did not do my planned workout this evening.

Not a good day.

C • I think we need 3

TNT - two miles on the drive with Sandy at a ridiculously slow pace that felt hard. Guess I'm not recovered from Saturday yet.
