13.1 group. Speed work night. 8X400 with 3 minute slow jog recovery in between. 1 mile warmup. 1:59, 2:07, 2:17, 2:24, 2:15, 2:15, 2:15, 1:50 1 mile cool down. I'm pleased with all of them except #4. I don't race much at all so when our "coach" was putting together this schedule, she didn't really know what to put for me. She had a goal of 2:20 down for these which I told her was too slow. I really thought I would've been faster than this though. Oh well. By the way, it was by far the most humid run of my life. I was literally dripping after our warmup. Yet, I still drank nothing on the run. I have issues. Okay, I believe Burt requested a funny story. Lets see... I am taking peanut butter and banana sandwiches for lunch this week (yum!), so on Monday when I went to get in my car, I dropped the bag of ingredients (bread, bananas, peanut butter). I have some severely bruised bananas on my hands now. The funny (not really) part was that the jar of peanut butter rolled right in the middle of the underside of my car. So I was on the ground in a dress trying to reach for it. NOT PRETTY. Thank goodness I live in the country and don't have any neighbors that are too close by. Another one: Monday at work (same day), I was walking down the hall to wash out my coffee cup and I tripped and fell over my own feet and spilt coffee all over my Lilly dress. Not happy. At all. If my dress wasn't ruined from crawling on the ground, it definitely is from that darn coffee. |
