- Pre-run thoughts:
- I ate a bagel and jelly again and got ready for practice. I'm pretty tired today and I think we're gonna go faster than normal on our workout so I hope it isn't too hard
- How fast did you go: 6:45 on warmup, 5:25 per mile on uptempo 8:00 on cooldown
- How far did you run: 2 mile WU, 9 mile uptempo, mile CD
- Specifics: uptempo workout (maybe the last of the year)
- Post-run thoughts:
- This workout was super hard. I was sooo tired and we were going super fast even on the warmup. We also weren't supposed to start going fast till after mile 4 but we got fast after mile 2 which I definitely felt later in the workout. We did a hard route because of the wind, but it was uphill like the whole way. It doesn't seem like anyone really had fun or felt great today, so I don't know if we were tired from a hard weekend or what, but we'll figure it out.
- Nutrition and recovery after: We did weights which were tough cause of how tired I was, then got a protein shake and snack, then I met with coach before getting some more food and drinking my smoothie from yesterday.
- End of day reflection:
- Today was solid. The workout was hard, so the day started kinda tough, but meeting with coach was good and he made me even more excited to race soon. I got some homework done after which was good and hung out with some people in the lounge before class. Class wasn't too bad but I was super tired and almost falling asleep. I went home and chilled before getting dinner with Quenton before everyone came over for bible study. It was a solid first study and good to have everyone at the house! After that I watched the end of the Yankeed win then foam rolled and called Will before going to bed.
