I was going to run another fast 800m today but I bailed after 600, seeing I wouldn't beat yesterday's time and decided to do more quantity. Heavier today after yesterday's birthday dinner.
450m warmup, stretches, drills
Puma spikes on
50m strider
4 x 600m - 1:43, 1:44, 1:51, 1:47
200m - 27.5It was hard, and a bit faster than my previous 600 sessions... and I did 4. I'll probably do one similar workout tomorrow and then go for more speed on Wed and/or Thurs. My knee tells me I should take a day off this week.
Regular registration for Masters Nationals closes today in a few hours. The "bad news" for us struggling middle-aged 400m sprinters is that world silver medalist, C. Moody has entered. Running 52 last year in the World games, no one will touch him, especially me. This should be a very competitive 400 field, going to be really tough to win a medal this year.
Going back to Murfreesboro today. Will workout Tues and Wed there. I'm thinking some blocks and a 400m event run for Wed. The heat is supposed to break. But... when is my day off? If my wheels hold up for 5 days in a row of workouts, on Friday - pre race day, I'll take it easy.
