two more runs

Yesterday ran at the community center due to significant freezing conditions. Did 1+ mile wu then 2x800 randomly while the group was doing drills. 254 and 254. They were fairly hard heh/ugh but obv much slower in there than outside. Then timed for a while and jogged a half mile. Lets call it 3 lol at least i ran a bit extra today to make up for it.

Today was 40 min call it 4.5 it was prob a little more with Emily in the evening around the neighborhoods. A balmy 27ish degrees it was still fairly cold which makes me glad i didnt run yesterday lol. Possible workout Friday although now it says rain/snow we shall see. Definite workout Sunday at least. Remember 40 is not cold at least to people who arent babies hmph.

Darin did 5x150 yesterday. They have a short workout of 4x200 and 2x400 tomorrow. Merritt slowly getting better I have to get her to run moderate on Friday- a difficult task. It would be good to practice the first mile of the two mile for monday and then kick a little. Hopefully by monday back at full power. Also have to get Darin to think about dominating the 800 at a big meet for the first time because he is ready and also two of the main people will have run the mile shortly beforehand.

Friday will mainly be interesting to see what Paul and Daquan will do in the 4x8. Long sprinters stepping up we will see how it goes- at least they have sufficient speed and its only two minutes+.

So far so fair,good 800

So the new year has been fair(at best) at least i have run every day meh not really that much though i did 27 miles the week of 12/29-1/4. Really tearing it up lol. At least i did a morning run this am(altho no pm run haha) Tom is obv supposed to be frigid ill either run before prac or in the comm center. Or both. Darin ran a solid 800 sunday with 29.0/59./1:30/2:00.mid altho he said the clock was 159 ha. He still needs to get out better but not bad certainly for the first real one. Merritt was sick and is slowly getting better? her chest is very congested now. Inside running tom prob treadmill. Im a bit discouraged with Imani and Aliya they are so unmotivated which obv doesnt help. The boys are dong quite well overall though we need to talk about it tomorrow. Not next week,not after breakfast,NOW.. um i mean tomorrow(that is from shawshank redemption for those of you following at home). If you are following from a mobile device I am shocked and impressed. Also the Toni Brown magically suspicious improvement is depressing and sad. We'll see what happens next year meh. DUvall brought up Maury last year which I had never even considered- who knows it just discouraging to think of that possibility in general in high school. Ugh. But anyway we're doing good at least the boys and the girls are hanging in there. Workout for the week are steady run maybe wednesday? It will still be cold ugh but I could always man up heh. Then 400s friday supposed to be a bit warmer then.

Very light wo- Merritt sore throat

SO ran at mcd today- it was semi wamr in the am but got a bit colder throughout the day(dont be a baby). We did 1 mile wu then 4-8-4x4 she couldnt breathe well so we stopped early which was smart. It was like 92/306/91/90/91/95 I led the last one and slowed it down on purpose. So hopefully she wont get sick. Darin seemed a bit better today he said his foot was better although he took ibu before the run I kind of wish they wouldnt do that so they can tell how it feels during the wo. So anyway the pace was not that bad i mean obv it wasnt too tough of a wo but remember thats faster than 94 which is supposed to be my slow build up tempo pace for January so good. We did a wo at the comm center 10x30m plus 4-3-2 it wasnt that great but the main thing is to get some running in. Naomi was tight and Imani didnt eat enough during the day and Daquan ate too much taco bell lol. High school. Darin Nandu and the rest did 4 sets of 4 100s btw it was pretty good. 3 miles total today and 8 for week so far btw

Easy 5 in rain w Merritt

Ran at mcd w merritt. Raining and 40 degrees but the run wqas pretty pleassant. Tired some from yesterday's meet which was kind of blah not bad but not really good. A few good performances. Im concerned that darin might have gotten cat scratch fever/disease well keep an eye on that def. Possible run w Drew later depending on how motivated I am. WO tom.

Run w Anna

No run yesterday. Ran with Anna at Mcd this am. I dont know how fast it was as the watches are still awol but it was pleasantly difficult like i was breathing hard and it was a little hard to talk which was fun as its nice to do a harder run withouit my feet or other problems hurting. Obv it was cold and im still a bit sick but not too bad. Well prob run again tomorrow before she heads back off to kansas.

Also tomorrow is the day im going to try to start rerecording training etc. Which reminds me I should print off the december month so i can actually do that. Also i wont be dumb enough to promise a daily post on the glob- if it happens it happens haha.

Mildly sick and light wo

So still running when I can. Ive been a little bit sick my throat has gotten better- the acetiminophen actually helps that i didnt know that. Now im just a little bit weak. No run today. Yesterday did 8 miles w merritt and darin. We did a 1.5+ mile wu and then 4 800s on the track. It was somewhat windy not horrible but there. We did 3:12,3:09,3:15,3:10. It was too hard for merritt cuz of the cold it was hard to breathe. It was actually not easy for me either heh. So we stopped which was fine then we did a good long cooldown of 4 miles by the end it was fine. Darin did a good wo on wednesday of 10x200 in approx 30-31 followed by a 400 in 57. Solid it was windy and cold that day. Today he did minutes 1-2-3-2-1-2-1 but his shin was a bit sore on the last two so he didnt do the 300-2x200-3x100 and just rode the bike for wd. We'll see how he feels tom he could always take tom off insted of sun which obv doesnt matter.

Id like to start more running again in dec- just some am runs maybe and 1 wo/week. famous last words haha.

Nice run in the dark

So ran with Em and Alex Kavalosky at mcd after practice. We started at like 545 so obv it was dark the whole time. Chilly but not bad just did loops on the soccer fields for a while then back to track for a couple laps then more loops then like a mile+ on track. Easy pace I felt good the whole time until like the last 10 mins my feet were a little sore. 58 min total. Prob like 6.5 miles or so who knows.

Prac today was ok attendance was pretty good since it was monday. Now imani wants to prac with some woman 2 days a week at coppin. We will discuss tomorrow. I can tolerate it a little except i dont think coppin has an indoor track for one and then aliya is going to fall apart for another which i dont want. Yet another opportunity lol as i was disucssing w em. Most everyone ran inside today as it was fairly cold although a few went out. Wo was 6x40 then 4x60 then 6-10 times loop(250ish). Dis tomorrow we need to have some people do mile type wos at some point. Depends on weather also.
