I'm going to race in Birmingham tomorrow. The Sewanee team apparently cancelled. I have low expectations because I've lost so much training time and fitness that I don't expect to improve on my times from last week. Goal is just to break a minute. (The last time I did this - ran 3 weekends in a row - I ran that really bad race at the Emory meet - 61, from lane 2). Since I have lane 5 in a full heat of mostly college freshman, I'll go. It'll be crowded because most of these kids are slow (for college) and they have 6 lanes full. With the weather as it is, I just need the training. I probably won't be ready to race again til SE Masters in 3 weeks since school is starting next week. The weather really has knocked me off my routine. Also, foot is sore from 2 days in a row on that tight indoor track. Did 1000m+ of sprints in there last night.
Bought a second pair of Rocket X2 trainers so I can alternate them. Found them for $172 + tax and shipping. Regularly $250. I really need to get on ebay and start selling off some of my shoes.
