16 mile in the morning.
3.40 miles in the afternoon.
Big workout with Clyde this morning. I guess Dave slept in this morning until 4:45! What a lucky guy. Clyde and I met at the DC and did a 7 mile warmup and then did 7 miles at MP tempo with a 2 mile cooldown. Both of us were really dragging during the 7 mile warmup and were both contemplating to just bag the tempo all together. I had 3 potty stops and was not feeling that great. My legs were still a little heavy from Saturday's workout. We both said to heck with it and went for the tempo. I hit the first mile in 5:21 and was not feeling that great. I wanted to pull out but I fought through it and kept telling myself that this is the end of the marathon and I need to finish strong even though my legs were trash. I ended up hitting 5:28/mile overall for the 7 mile MP tempo. I was very happy with this because it was on dead legs.
During the 2 mile cooldown I puked twice and Clyde had to witness it both times. We both had a good laugh and kept on trucking on. I actually felt a lot better after this. It was quite the eventful run this morning. Not to many more of these until TCM.
I did a very easy 3.40 miles after XC to finalize a course for tomorrow. Dave is bringing his team of Pineview Panthers over here to battle the Desert Hills Thunder. It should be a lot of fun. Meet time is at 4pm and should be a lot of fun if anyone wants to come. |
