2:30 PM- 6 w/ long hill. Well, I thought the mileage was 5 but I'll count my miles and miles of mountain biking earlier! I went out in the heat today just to get use to it, because we are going to have to run in it in the middle of next week! It was super hot, but I wasn't going tempo pace or anything so it wasn't that bad the first couple of miles. I couldn't find a really long hill so I just went on the one by Hunter's house. I felt pretty tired because I went mountain biking with my dad this morning, so I wasn't going to push the pace. I was watching David Rudisha's WR 800m in the Olympics and WOW what an awesome race. Not only the speed, but it was without a rabbit! The announcers were saying that going for a record would leave him vulnerable to defeat, so it takes SO much trust in yourself to do that and go for it! I think that's the one element I'm missing now, not being affraid to go all out! So, I'm going to work on that next workout, race, ect.!
Goals next week: take care of myself (ice, use the stick, stretch, etc.), have fun running, don't overstress hurricane! |
