800, 400, 300, sled

Been on the track or on the hill past 4 days.  Beautiful night in Sewanee, 73º and moist, track wet from afternoon rain.  Creeping up the speed on these long sprints. 

Hoka trainers on 

400m warmup, stretches, drills 

800m - 2:29 (73, 76) 

400m - 66 

300m - 47 

5 x 45m weight sled pulls w/ 60 lbs

The 800m was the fastest I've run in a while and didn't kill me.  Felt easier then either of the slower I ran yesterday.  I started at about 17-18 100m speed.  I then did a relaxed 400m in just less than 17 sec 400m pace, then did a 300m in just less than 16 sec pace.  Slowing pushing the speed. 

I tried out the sled harness with the sled + 20 lb plate.  It was light enough to sprint 40+m with a good forward lean.  I did 5 x 45m.   I think this will be a good training tool.

I went to the weight room after and did my eccentric ham exercises.  It feels fine, normal...  should be able to sprint full speed fairly soon, but I'm being cautious. 

Still light... 139.9 lbs after workout.
