Afternoon- 11.75 miles total. Did pacing for the Lake to Lake relay. I paced the girls leg 6 (5.15 miles), Average pace was 7:05. Not too bad. Next leg had tons of hills, and the "Beasty Hill", but that was 5.85 miles and average pace for that was 6:45 with the hills. So a bit of a struggle. And then 0.75 mile cool down. Good run, but not exatly easy.

Morning- 3 miles easy, plyos after.

Afternoon- 2 mile warm up, 4x1600's with 400 recovery. Times were 5:29, :29, :22, :20. I really tired to just stay relaxed on the recovery. And the last one really hurt, and it was for sure tough. 2 mile cool down. Weights after.

Morning- Ah man..... I slept in, and not only that, I basically missed practice, because I didn't want to get up... But I still ran on my own to Turtle trail. I was kinda mad though, because I hate running alone... And I missed yoga!

Afternoon- 5 miles with striders. Ran up ice house. I remeber this being the worse hill ever, but it wasn't as bad as I thought even though I walked for 5 meters getting close to the top... I am just not very motivated to do anything running wise. Just kinda doing it, because I have nothing else to do? This attitude is killing me, has been for quite sometime now.

Morning- Nice and easy 3 miles. Well.... Not really slow, but it was rather fast. And I was being annoying this morning!

Afternoon- 2 mile warm up, 12x400's (beast work out), goal pace @ 1:09, 2 mile cool down, and then some core stuff. Times were 1:13, :11, :11, :11, :09, :09, :10, :11, :09, :10, :08, and :06. Really tough work out. I was more happy with last week's 400's because I was having better placing, but this work out was a lot better, and faster than last week. So I really can't complain there. I was just really negative while running the work out, besides the last mile on the cool down. I am such a bum lately! Oh well, I will get through it like always! As I use to say as my positive self, "Builds character to go through hard things!" And recovery was 2 minutes after each one.

Morning- Beast 12 miles with 20 minute of tempo progression. First half was solid. 2nd half stuggled a little. Plyos too. Total distance during the tempo was 3.44 (average pace 5:48). I would say that's a success. 

Afternoon- Made up a 3 mile loop exactly.

Morning- 2 mile warm up. 6x400's at 800 race pace goal time 1:01.5!! With 2 minute recovery jog. Times were 1:03, :06, :08, :07, :06, and :09. The last one my legs basically couldn't move, and I remeber track not being this hard. But track is way harder than anything else. 2 mile cool down. Legs felt like concreate after the 400's. And then we had plyos, and those took like 20 minutes. And then my legs felt like more concreate. 

Afternoon- 3 miles out on turtle trail. Running up the huge hill hurt my legs from the 400s this morning. Good run and nice temps.

Morning- 2 mile warm up. Old man hill repeats 800, 400, 200 (3 set). Equal recovery like distance for each one. My legs were flatter than ever today. And they my quads were just jello the whole run, and hurt at first, and at the end. Times were 2:47 (800), 1:17 (400), :38 (200), first set was just eh legs were tired, and so was body. This is where I started to get into it more. 2:44, 1:16, and :37. Last set I was really tired, and just wanted to be done. I struggled on the last 200 meters on the 800. But then Coach inspired me by saying, "Are you gonna let an old man be you?!?" And that gave me motivation. And time 2:40. 1:14, and :34 (almost 33). 2 mile cool down. My calves were really on fire at the end, and my throat was burning super bad... But it was for sure a great work out! 

Afternoon- 3 miles a little faster than yesterday, but same route in the desert not as far, and then I just added at the end.

Morning- 3 miles a little quicker I would say. I kept pushing the pace for some reason. Plyos were interesting as always.

Afternoon- Well... 2 mile warm up, and then the work out (4x1600's) goal pace 5:16. 3 minute recovery in between each one (400 meter lap). First one was actually alright, 5:26. And then I felt that was a ok start, for sure better start than the last couple of weeks. And then the 2nd one I starting feeling weird, like a stomach pain I thought it was nothing out of the ordinary. Finished at a 5:32 eh.... And then I felt horrible and just thought I had to use the bathroom, but I just thought suck it up your in a work out. And then first lap was on pace, next lap way off, next lap even more off, and last lap I was basically jogging, until 300 left. So I picked up the pace a lot, and started hurting like a beast in my stomach. At 1,450 I saw what was coming. 1,500 it started to come, at 1,535 I threw up too many times..... I got all dizzy and couldn't see for a while and it was nasty... And smelled nasty! You don't need to know more detail than that! It took me a while to recover to actually walk again even. I was ticked out of my mind! Right in the middle of a work out, and I throw up! I actually felt better after that, but horrible at the same time. I was soo mad I wasn't able to finish the work out. I barley finished the cool down (2 miles). I nearly died, my stomach hurt soo much. And then weights were interesting as well. The pain was still there, but I just ignored it. Not exactly what I call a "Perfect Day" of anything. Just adds another thing of my list today that frustrates me. But the 3rd repeat at 1,535ish was 5:30. Haha, I stopped my watch when I started throwing up that cracks me up, guess it was reflex to stop the watch when stopping. Ha.

Later I raced the open 400. And I just wanted to go sub 56. And that's exactly what I did! :) I ran a 55.66, not too bad for a 400 in the open of the season. 2 mile cool down.
