Side order of wind please!

April 30, 2008 at 11:41 PM - 0 comments - link

Monday – Today was a progressive day, both for the run and for the bike session. It went pretty good… I just feel distracted because I got a huge research project due plus a presentation on Thursday…. And I’ve barely started it! Yay procrastination haha. 

28 min progressive

(bike) 30 min progressive, then 10x30 sec hard, 30 sec easy

Mileage: 14 miles

Tuesday – So today was a speed day. But let me tell you how windy it was! I literally got blown off my feet, that’s what 65mph winds do I guess haha. I was just happy that I got to finish the speed session… I believe this is the first time I’ve been able to do that! Yay… but… then I pulled a blond moment. So I brought my computer and all my stuff to school so I could finish my paper (cuz I just cant focus at home) and got all my stuff set up… and realized I left all my research materials at home. My bad! Ugh… I’ll just do it tomorrow I think.  

Mileage: 4.5 miles

Wednesday – Longest Wednesday ever! So it was another kinda windy day which made me a little nervous. We ended up changing the workout after my first 1200, with my asthma… the wind is no bueno. I was suckin air like a fish outta water. It wasn’t pretty. SO we changed to 300’s at 800m pace. Man… let me tell you what a confidence boost that was for me. The paces I was runnin was around 2:03 avg… and I didn’t feel once like I was pushin it… not to mention it was cold and windy. Definitely needed this workout going into this weekend. Coach was really happy too because he said it was the best specific (meaning 800m race specific) workout that I’ve ever done in all the years he’s been here! After the workout I spent like 3 hours finishing my project… I’ll finish my presentation before class tomorrow haha. Oh… and don’t forget the bike double haha… oh yeah.  And on a side note... I'm sooo freakin happy I think I'm gettin down to race weight... I'm back unter 130 (buy 2 lbs haha) and I couldnt be more excited (Cuz it's finally been consistent for the last 3 days too)

2x1200 w/200m jog recovery (4:18, 4:12), 800m jog recovery, 3x300 w/800m jog recovery (47.2, 46.0, 45.2), 1x200 (28)- 6.3 miles

(bike) 10min warm up, 20x1min hard, 1min easy, 6 min cool down – 8 miles

Mileage: 14.3 miles
