I bumped the mileage up to 3 today, and I was finally able to leave the school to get my run done!

Speed workout today, 6x400 at mile pace with 2.5 minutes rest, and 4x200 at 800 pace with 1 minute rest. The 400s were hard, but I surprised myself because I was able to actually hit my paces! On the 200s I was able to give a little more effort and go under 30 sec on one of them, and it felt great! I'm glad I could get a solid speed workout in before the meet this weekend!

My race today was hard to say the least. First lap, I felt good and came in at a 70. Second lap, I surged on the back stretch, but the pace became really difficult to maintain and those guys I had just passed with my surge passed me again. At this point my body was pretty wrecked and I was just holding on for dear life. Third lap, pretty much the same thing as the second lap, I was not feeling good. Fourth lap, my legs felt like lead but I managed to sprint the last 75 meters and pass a couple guys. The race did not go how I would have liked, my legs were just extremely unusually fatigued. Then I realized that I have only really been eating 2.5 meals or less every day for the passed week, so I will work on that going into next week and the multitude of speed workouts planned. Shout out to Connor who went under 4:30 today, state qualifying is within reach man!

3 more miles today, I'm ready to up it to 4 next week! I've been focusing on keeping the pace slower for my easy runs so I can better recover from hard workouts. I hope next week's workouts go well.
