A new and sunny week

Yesterday I decided to jump in with our distance crew for their taper workout. I had forgotten what most HS track workouts are like. Seriously who warms up for 2 laps at 9 minute pace, does one 50 m stride and then steps to the starting line for 67 second pace quarters? Luckily I had done 7 minutes of running before that so I was able to avoid injury but it certainly wasn't the most pleasant way to run a workout. My body was in total shock after the first 400, especially since the guy leading the pace went out too slow and we ended up running 35-32. The cool-down by the way was 2 laps.

Today I'm taking an off day.
