Speed today, and I actually am feeling much better than I have been so that's a win. The workout was 2x400m, 3x200, 4x100m, all at 800 pace. Splits were 59,59,28,31,30,14, then I lost my lunch and couldn't breathe so I pulled out. BUT everything I did my legs responded well to, unlike the last 23483945738476 workouts.

Long recovery, my legs were pretty heavy from yesterday but that's to be expected. I'm excited for Friday!

Recovery today, I did 2 miles and abs before practice so I could get to work on time. My legs were just really tired. Hopefully they feel better tomorrow.

Warmup, then premeet. 2x200m at goal pace for tomorrow. 29 and 29 and starts. Windy and cold. I did 4.5 on the treadmill inside to protect my lungs as much as possible. Excited to throw down tomorrow!

Birthday shoutout to Gan and big shoutout to Michael and Austin for getting their mission calls! Michael to Paraguay and Austin to Spain!

Warmed up, then raced the 800. Usually I'm pretty conservative right off the line, but it was cramped so I figured I should get out as hard as possible. I still got elbowed and sucked into the pack, where we went out waayyy too slow. On the back stretch I saw an opening and moved out to lane 4 and surged to the front, and hauled for the next 200, even though my first lap was still only a 60-61. Chris then passed me and my legs/lungs/body started to catch up to me. I'm making some progress, but it's slow. I can honestly say I gave everything I had so I'm proud of it but I'm hungry for faster times. It's a long road back.

I did 3 before work with my dad, I haven't run with him in forever so that was kinda cool. After work I did 4 in AF. Felt stressed about things so I pushed a little harder than I probably should have.
