Speed endurance

A relief as the weather was a bit better, mid 70ºs with a light rain in Sewanee.  So much better than what I've been in lately.  First time out this month on one day of rest.
Hoka Clifton 2s on 
400m warmup, stretches, drills 
800m - 2:29 
3 x 300m - 42.5, 43.5, 43.5

Ran the 800m briskly and really pushed the 300s about 90%.  Pretty fast considering training shoes, a wet track and following a tiring 800m.  It was the first time I've run anything close to race pace in a while, and this wasn't really race pace.  Again, nearly full rest in between.  Still haven't done any of the painful tempo intervals yet.

Still 9 full weeks of training before Worlds.  Registration closes in less than a week, so we'll see who shows up.

Not happy with my weight but still eating bread and stuff.  Also, haven't done much strength work besides abs lately.  Need to get to the gym.  144.9 lbs after workout.
