"His legs just turned to jelly"

Well today was better.Yesterday I was very tired from Tuesday. In the current training I am pretty tired the day after a harder day- or at least I was yesterday. I did 12 400s in the am with Emily at 7:00 pace and it was tough. Then I did 40 min on the grass on the infield of the track at McD while they were doing a wo at prob 8:40 pace and I felt a little better but still pretty sluggish and flat.

So then today I got a good amount of sleep -i have been sleeping until right before practice like every day btw. 3 mile morning run easy with Em rather than 6 or 12 400s like the previous two days which felt good. Then nap,stand around and do nothing at Franklin prac while they ran,then down to mcd for the weekly CI workout

This week it was 3x2400 start every 10:30(so a little over 1:30 rest). It was fairly difficult to run the proper pace because some of them were running 5 400s and its hard to run 90s when others are running 70 and Madeline and Suzy are running 73 and 77s heh. But I was close at least- 8:49,8:48,8:42 which felt tolerable. Of course 8:42 is not really close to 9:00 but this is fairly standard- the key is to keep doing these and stay consistent with them. Only one more week at "6:00" pace then down to 5:52 which is pretty much what I hit today. next week should be interesting as Im doing 1600-4800-1600 a modification of a tristram workout from UNC and I think ive read of others doing it too. It will be good to run the continuous 4800 and hopefully I can actually hit 6 min pace for that. Today as per normal the first lap of the second two was 84-85 because of the rest obv.

Also I didnt do the 200s but I will do them tomorrow- not quite the idea but ok obv. Mileage so far this week is 47 btw which is good/right about what it should be. Hopefully it wont snow too much/at all tonight.

Oh btw the quote in the title is from the Curley meet 20 years ago. Sanborn was telling them the story during the last two laps of the last 2400 and asking me questions each time I went by lol which I was a little too tired to answer well. Then on the last lap of course i got to think about that race again- at least I havent thought of it in a while haha ugh.
