2x300m, 150m

 I got up very early Friday and caught a flight back to Chattanooga and got back to Sewanee by 11am.   Not feeling really energized, I hit the track about 1:30.  It was cold and windy, but sunny.  Not sure what I wanted to do but I opted to try and best myself on the 3x3w/3 since this was going to be probably the best day for weather in the next weeks.  Terrible, wet, and cold weather forecast on every workout day for next 2 weeks.  

My 3x3w/3 failed.  I went out too hard on the first one and knew midway through #2, I would not be able to do a meaningful set or improve from the previous.  So, I rested several minutes and did a 150m easy.

Stretches, drills, bands, 50m strides

Hoka Rocket x2 on 

2x300m w/ 30 sec rest - 49.84, 53.34

150m - 21.93

HR after #1 max 179, recovered to 131.  HR after #2 176, recovered only to 148 after 3 min and was still sucking wind.   So, I bailed.  Disappointing.  I could've stuck it out and ran a 56+, but decided not to.  

I need to continue with the hills, go indoor and do some weights, form drills, short speed.   Indoor facility has free weights and machines, weight sleds, and short track. 

Not progressing much.  Probably go back to turf on Tues, track is hard on the knees.

Will go to the gym tonight, do some long (200m) hills tomorrow.  

140.6 lbs after workout.  

Will probably go indoor for one of these:  Workout weather: Sun - rain ending, windchill 36º,  Tues - 40% chance rain/snow, windy, windchill 29º,  Friday - 58% chance of rain, windchill 39º
