Wed May 23rd - Aerobic Capacity Intervals - 10mi

Time of day 9:00 AM
Distance 10.00 mi
Comments 3 miles warm-up at Temple Track. I think this place gets more ghetto each day. Today it was shadow boxers dancing in lane 1, and 3 big ladies pushing baby carriages in 2-4 having what sounded like an angry conversation about baby daddys. It is almost a motivational workout to stay focused on completing a run amidst the chaos of this place. Todays workout was 2 x 1600 Tempo with 1 min break, 4 x 200 with 200 active recovery, 2 x 1K Tempo, 1 min break, 4 x 200 with 200 active recovery. Cranked out what was faster than tempo pace and overdid the 200s this early on, ruining my second set which was suppossed to be 1600s as well. After crusing 32s on the first set, my body wouldnt let me run slower than 77s on the opening 800 of the following set, decided to not overdo it and stick with 1Ks for the second time around. 2 mile cool down.

Mon May 21st - Aerobic Capacity Intervals - 10.2mi

Time of day 10:00 AM
Distance 10.20 mi
Comments Strange run. Went to track for a workout. Once I finished my 3 mile warm-up and strides the track flooded with the northeast public school systems gym classes. Instead of dodging small children running wild in every lane, I took a trip to the river to run on the path. Extremely muggy, couldn't get up to pace. settled for quarters, alternating hard and easy to get the speed going. not very promising. Good thing I have 6 weeks to get it back
