100, 400, weight pulls

Sat, a consecutive day on the track, the weather was so nice, mid 70ºs, mostly clear, calm winds.   I was going to take the day off from running but I came out late in the day.

I wanted to run a 400 with a slower first 200, but it was actually too slow for an optimum time.

Hoka trainers on 

stretches, 100m, bands, drills

100m - 13.40

Adidas trainers on

400m - 60.72 (29.13, 31.59 / 14.06, 15.07, 15.07, 16.52)

4 x 90lb weight pulls - 75 yds

Was disappointed with the 400m. Was trying to run 14,14,15,16 splits.  Relaxed too much on the 2nd 100m.   Seemed like I was running faster, but no.   Adjusting today's time -1 sec if it were with  spikes (.5 in each half) my first 200m was a whopping 2+ sec slower than my recent event run in spikes, which was really too fast (26.54), I only gained 1 sec in the second 200, so a net loss of about a second over 400 (compared to the 58.74).  So, the best pace would probably be in the middle, which would be about low/mid 27.   I really do need to get to 300m by about 42 or at least 42.5 sec.  Which would be 27.5 + 15 minimum.  Then I'd need 16 to get 58.5 in the last 100m.   27.4 + 14.8 would be better (42.2).  

After that 400m, I wanted to run another one, but I  bailed after 60m, foot hurt.  So I then did 4 good pulls on the field with 90 lbs.  These 75 yd pulls were the longest so far.

Weight is getting there.  140.2 lbs
