Basketball this morning. Feeling a little sick today, didn't really want to come to work, but it is more of a hassle to call a sub. Real good workout tonight. Jordan had ball practice at the high school, so I decided to do my 1000's tonight, instead of Wednesday as I was planning on doing. It was still really hot when I started 90 degrees. I did a 3 mile warm-up, then hit the track. The plan was 6x1000 meters @ CV pace with 200 meters recovery, basically 2:00 minutes.
Interested to see how my times would compare on the track with my course in La Verkin. 1-3:30 (5:37 pace) Went out and felt pretty good on this first one
2-3:29 (5:36) Still feeling good
3-3:29 (5:36) Starting to warm-up, took a little longer recovery after this repeat. I decided to take off my shirt which probably scared the other runners on the track, but the Little Budda needs some sun.
4-3:33 (5:42) Struggled
5-3:30 (5:37) Better and back on pace
6-3:30 (5:37) Worked pretty hard on this one, but still ended up with the same time. I was pretty pleased with this workout for the following reasons. 1. I did this alone with nobody pushing me, which is how most of my workouts go 2. Warm temperatures 3. Times were real consistent. Did 2 miles easy as a cool-down.
