blocks, 100s, 200

Yet another glorious spring day and the track was calling.   Mid 70ºs and dry late afternoon in Sewanee.  I didn't want to do much, just some block work with spikes, 3 hard 100s and a 200.

400m warmup, stretches, drills 

50m strider 

Puma spikes on 

6 x block starts  

3 x 100m from blocks - 13, 12.5, 12.8 

200m - 25.8 

100m strider

Soreness from the stairs last week still lingering in my left quad, left hip a bit achy.  No serious issues except I feel a bit 'used up.'   Need to stay away from the track tomorrow, maybe go back on Wed. for a bit.

I really don't know what there is to gain by racing a 100/200 this coming weekend on a poor black HS track ... as I doubt I'm going to post any decent times, probably the usual low to mid 12s/25s.   If it feels ok, I'll go have some fun.   Keep hoping for a breakthrough, but I'm dubious it will happen without a rest and a recycle.   I haven't raced a 100m in 13 mo and just want to see where I'm at.  I feel I can race a 100m without getting hurt.  Discouraging to not have produced anything close to the 24.65 200m I ran indoors.   I'll get there.... eventually.
