Perfect weather again in Sewanee, low - mid 70ºs, light winds, partly cloudy. I needed to do race pace speed tonight so I again opted for 2 x 250m, 300m. Last night I did a very brief 15 min leg and ab workout, just one set.
Hoka trainers on
stretches, drills, bands, 2 x 100m, 2 x 50m
250m - 33.43 (12.75, 13.48, 7.20 / 26.23, 7.20)
250m - 33.96 (13.07, 13.99, 6.90 / 27.06, 6.90)
300m - 42.23 (34.47, 7.76 / 13.20, 14.23, 14.80/ 27.43, 14.80)
The first one was too fast, the second, although slower was about right. At that pace, I think I would have enough left to come in at around 57 low, which would require 23 low last 150 (something like 7.4 + 15.8).
139.3 lbs after workout.
Meets and schedule:
This weekend at the Atlanta relays, they are putting open and Masters together. I'm in lane 6, and I have two 45 sec world class 400 guys in my heat in lans 4 and 5. The rest are relatively slow masters except for Roderick in lane 8 who is M42, and runs 53. The track at McDonough HS is brand new so it might be fast.
The following weekend I may just run a 200m. I could stay in Atlanta, and race in Marietta at Wheeler HS on a black 6-lane track, or I could drive 95 miles to AL and race on a better newer blue track. I probably won't race another 400m for 2 weeks. This weekend will be my 7th 400m race of the season, which is a lot. About what most pros do in a season.
After sunset at the oval office... so quiet and nice
