Train insane or remain the same

In track on distance run days we had recovery paced runs and distance pace runs, which are just to make sure we are going a good pace and get the legs going but still not too hard. It was a "distance pace" run, our range was 6:45-7:00 and it will get faster as the season goes on. We had a few miles that were slower than 7 but the avg pace with the warm up was 6:58 and thats all that matters. 

Today we did whistle hills, 3 sets of 15, 20, and 25 second sprints up a gradual incline. After each one we slowly jog/walk down to the line, have a few seconds and then go again. This workout is all mental and you get out of it what you put in. I pushed it hard and my hamstrings were exhausted. I had a few dry heaves but unlike kobe I didn't throw up. Shout out to him for pushing it and for wearing his galaxy shorts today, so we matched. After we stopped at Jamie's house and got water and finished miles. Ice bath in the creek after. Tomorrow will be a very slow recovery run.    

I had a meeting for sports marketing so I ran later by myself. Easy distance run at 7:17 pace cuz my legs were stiff from yesterday. I ran up the long gradual hill by buttscratches house, i guess i'll call it buttscratch hill. It was hot so I took a lot of brakes and stretched out.  

Tempo run today with about the same range as last time 5:30-5:45. We ran to willow park and jamie biked next to us to cheer us on and help us stay together. I started my watch once we were up to speed so my first mile was a little faster than others. I got 5:37, same as last weeks. Second mile, Thomas who was incharge of pacing was dying off so we went 5:50. After 2 miles we didnt have to stay together anymore if we were feeling better, so me, collin, and michael split off and finished in 5:26. A little out of the range but jamie was ok with it because the average was good and it was only few seconds under. I felt good and the overall time was faster than last weeks. Next week we will do 3.5 miles. Ran back at a nice easy pace.

Shout out to Collins mom for making us breakfast.

Shout out to Holt for killing the mileage board lately. 

Happy Birthday shout out to Kylie Labrum!
