600, 400, 100

Back in Sewanee, it felt great compared to the oppressive heat of Atlanta.  Calm to light winds, 82º, heat index of 89º, sunny.  Felt cool compared to the 100º heat index of Atlanta, with absolutely no wind. 

Today was my first time running on the track since my race where I strained my ham tendon a bit, and my calf.  Both much improved.  The ham tendon is just a bit sore, calf is fine.  I was going to do 2x600 today, but I took a little too much time after my first so I just ran an easy 400, rested 30 sec and ran a 100 strider.  I didn't want to push it thinking I could come out again on Friday for an 800 and maybe some hills.  

I'm loving swimming at the lake, and it makes for a nice early afternoon ritual.  Then I go home and try for an afternoon nap before workout.  

Hoka trainers on

stretches, drills, 2 x 100m

600m - 1:43.23 (66.93, 36.30 / 32.28, 34.65, 36.30)

400m - 73 / rest 30 sec / 100m - 16.70

I think I'll be ok but no speed work, probably til next week or maybe after Eugene.  I definitely think these minor strains at this time halted my momentum and progress.  Hopefully, I can be well for the 800m and Finland.  

138.0 lbs after workout
