PM  2.0 miles, I jogged to the office and retrieved Erica's car.

 

AM

I did my speed workout of 16 400's, 45 sec rest, distance a tad over a 400, due to being at the soccer park, and needing landmarks to start/stop.  I felt ok this morning.  I didn't want any over 90 secs, and i made it.  No wind, humid, about 81 degrees at the start, 85 at the end.  Not too bad.

1st 4 400's = 89.59, 84.02, 89.60, 87.99

2nd 4 400's =  87.37, 85.96, 89.08, 87.26

3rd 4 400's =  89.01, 85.39, 88.47, 87.56

4th 4 400's = 86.93, 86.50, 87.90, 85.19

It takes awhile to get used to running in the heat, so this transition is good.  I am going to go back on Saturday and run the same uptempo 10k that i ran last Saturday, but i am going to start at 545am.  Next Tuesday is the 2nd LVTC summer track series, the race is the 3200, should be fun in the 100+ degrees to run 8 laps on the track.  I am hoping for low 11 minutes.

Cheers

Mike
