Total Distance
12.50

AM- 4 easy on the usual route. Pretty calm this morning. Talked about some of the success I had with Megan on Saturday ;)

PM- 8.5 total, 4x1600s @87% (goal: 5:27), 2x300s (goal: 0:44). Great day out on the track today! My side was feeling melancholy, and I was feeling kinda cruddy going into this, but I decided to take my feelings out on the track and hit my 4th good 1600 workout in a row. Jason, my buddy who ran the same Kosmin, went in and out on this workout because of hip issues. I went 5:28 (with Jason), 5:28 (1st half with Jason), 5:26 (no Jason), and 5:16 (2nd half with Jason). Last one was fast with even 2:38 800 splits. Last 2 were the ones where I had killer sideaches and I still managed to throw down on the times.

300s were the real goal and I hit :44s on both again today! That means next week I gotta go :43 or I'll become like one of those guys who never breaks 5 in the mile, but always gets so close!
