Wind sucks. Went outside with Kenny for a easier run, I did 4.5, Kenny did a little less. The paces were all over the place, based on which direction we ran, as there was a 30 mph cold wind. The first two miles were at the effort level of about 7:15-30, I sped up a lot for the last 2.5, which felt like 6:30, but, due to the weather, and the fact that they were uphill, the splits were closer to 7:20ish. When I got back, the sprinters were doing some 100-150 meter repeats, so I joined them to get a little bit of speed in.

1x600, 1x400, 1x200, 2x400. Splits were 1:48, 72, 30. 68, 67. After that we ran 1600m alternating one lap slow, then the next fast. My legs started to hurt pretty bad after the 200, so the rest of the workout was kind of tough, but I tried to push through. My speed is kind of week, I need to focus on workouts like this. 400m cooldown after. The Red and White will be Thursday and Friday, and I'm excited. They seperated us into actual teams this year, and they did it randomly, so Clayton, Kenny, and I are all on one team. We'll probably win on distance alone. I'm doing the 3200, 1600, and 800, goals are 10:40, 4:50, and 2:12

All things considered, great race. For this early in the season, this is a really great time, especially since I haven't done any distance/endurance stuff lately. We've pretty much only been doing speed, and I'm totally okay with running a 10:40 with speed alone. We started really fast, the first few splits were really encouraging, until I died on the last three laps. 72 at the first lap, 2:30 at the 800, 3:53 at 1200, 5:11 first mile. I didn't catch the rest of the splits, but each lap was just slower than the one before it. My legs felt fine the whole time, it was my lungs and heart holding me back, and those are usually pretty easy to get back in shape, once we start getting some mileage.

 

Oh yeah, then I ran the 300m hurdles mostly as a joke. 51.84. Third place.

This was stupid. The splits were ridiculous, I went out way too fast. My freshman year, my 800 PR was 2:21, and my mile PR was 4:57. My first 800 today was a 2:21, but the final time was 4:57. Let's just say I didn't negative split.
