Foundation ... again

Same workout as last Monday, even a bit faster.  On just 2 days rest, which included several miles of hilly bike riding, I did a volume workout today.  Beautiful unseasonably warm peak color fall day, 71º in Sewanee with light winds.
Hoka trainers on 
350m warmup, stretches, drills 
800m - 2:41.5 
600m - 1:52 
500m - 84.5
Happy to get this one done.

Woke up rather heavy after late night eating, and a dinner at the amazing Atlanta Botanical Garden.  Wow, that carmel custard was good!   150 lbs out of bed and still 147.4 after workout.  Still not losing the weight, dinner tonight at Sewanee was broiled redfish, vegetables and Key lime pie.  Very good.  However, I can feel the body beginning to respond a little to the training.  Still a while before I will start running fast, but I can see a bit of improvement.  Tomorrow, I'll hit the weights and maybe Stairmaster and be back on the track by Friday.

Got plenty of time.  Over 19 weeks until indoor nationals.  It looks like the next 2 indoor nationals will be on flat 200m tracks.  BAD idea.  Forget about breaking any relay records.
