Very warm today, but not hot. Today, Nashville was the hottest it had been in a decade, over 100º, even hotter in Murfreesboro. At 7pm in Sewanee, 83º with a heat index upper 80ºs, calm winds.
Today, I just worked on my 800m pace. Ideally no 100m should be faster than 16.5 - 17. I also ran a bit in my green Pumas. First time since I won the 200m at Nationals last yr.
Hoka trainers on
stretches, drills, 100m
100m - 16.7
600m - 1:45.43 (68.62, 36.81)
Puma spikes on
400m - 68.47 (33.35, 35.12)
100m - 16.80
Hoka trainers on
2 x 200m - 32.71, 32.06
I ran the 600m at a pace where I thought I could finish an 800m. At this pace, I think I could run 2:23 or better in race conditions. That would put me close to David and Kevin this weekend. I must not go out faster than 68 or I'll not make it. Hoping for a last 200m in at least 37.5. The milers in the race will extend their lead in the second 400m as they will be close to even splits.
Was going to run a second 600m but I stopped at 400m so as to not stress my feet or injury, which is not completely gone. I put the Hokas back on and just worked on my stride and 800m pace.
Wonder if I might consider using my MaxFlys for the race. Maybe I'll try them out in a 600m if I feel up to it tomorrow or Friday. Was planning on using my comfy Pumas.
