Conditioning workout on turf again, this time 8x150, 3 sets. The college is on fall break. The weather is spectacular. Sunny, dry, 72º, calm winds. No rain in the forecast and it's been 22 days without measurable rain, which is not a good thing.

1200m of sprints today was a high for the season so far. Still every set got my HR to max. These weren't exceptionally fast but the volume was the point. Max HRs for each set were 183, 187, 180.
Still haven't run anything more than a 150m and almost entirely on the track. My foot is coping. I tried a taping system that seemed to help slightly on my last set. I took ample rest between each set.
I'm in real need of speed work and resistance training. So, I will be doing my Friday workouts either on the stadium stairs, hill, or short sprints (50-100m) on the track. Just those 2 x 100m sprints I did last Friday made my quads sore so that tells me, my body isn't used to sprinting fast. That will change.
Not going to rush it, but I look forward running some longer sprints in a few weeks once I get some speed and strength. Looking forward to sprinting some 300s, and maybe, if my foot can take it, some longer foundation. Long ways to go before I attempt a 300m tempo set. Maybe by Dec - Jan.
Finally, my weight is getting there. 140.3 lbs after workout.
