5x2k 5/23

Did some 2000s on the track. Was going to do 6, but only 5. Not sure if I talked myself out because my AT was in pain and my right hammy wasn't good, or if I was being soft. Rather safe than sorry with CBHM coming up. They were pretty fast, but felt good.

Wanted to do 2x2k, j-hill, 2x2k but wasn't feeling it. Left AT sore, and not nice. Felt it through a lot of it. Legs definitely not 100%. Tried to go slower, but couldn't manage it. Little concerned about AT...

4x2000@T 12/5

Well... I was going to do 6x2000. Only did 4 plus an extra 800. At the start of my second lap both calves started to cramp up. Mostly the right. Not really sure why. Shoes were kind of slippy on the wet track. I guess this sort of comes at an okay time. I'll have sometime to get things together, take it easy. Too soon to really start cooking.

Little concerned about the calves though. Cramping is never a good thing. Also went a little too fast, but not enough to make me think that's what it was. Did a good job stopping though.

Not sure mileage goal is going to happen. Again, not a massive concern, but a little bit of a let down.

6x2K 11/15

First track workout in a while. Felt a little intimidated going into it, but once I got into it I felt alright. Soreness/bruise from the other day was gone. Calves are definitely tired. Kind of wish I did another one or two, but... Moon was out full bore. Really light. Kinda nice.

8x2K@T 10/3

Ugh. This run sucked. Up early, legs were tired - I think because they don't work well in the morning. Not a lot of sleep the night before. Was going to do 10x1600, but did 8x2000 instead. Same distance, just different intervals. Cut the rest down to 60 seconds instead of 1:15. First couple were fast, and then they all slowed down. Still about 5:50 pace though so that's what matters. Legs definitely tired and abused. Wore the AIs. Definitely doable. Want to get the Samsons.

5x2k 9/20

Was supposed to do some 3200s, did 2000s. Wanted to see how the huaraches felt at a quicker pace. Felt pretty good. Ankles/calves definitely going to be a bit sore tomorrow, but doable. Thinking they'll be fine for Octoberfest. Left achilles is sort of sore, but not bad. Easy shake out tomorrow.

Don't remember this workout too well from last year. Remember that hitting all three paces sucks. Didn't hit my 1200 times; hit the first one, next one was a little off, second one was just a bit more. Not too bad, but still off. Blister started to get a bit angry in the last set of 200s. Sore and tired.

Was going to do my Long Run, but the weather was nice and things got late at home, so figured do the track workout now and the long run Tuesday. Not so good a plan. Snow on 2/3 of the track. Things went really slow. 6:00 pace or slower. The southern half and the home stretch were buried and some black ice. Hips sore as hell...

5x2k BV Loop 3/5

Good workout. Legs sore but not bad. Wore my r2s again and the ankle feels good. Really thinking it's the r3s doing me in. Especially considering it was the BV Loop with the turns... First one was slow. Second was way too fast. Think some of it had to do with the course. When I started on the northern end of BV I hit the hill three times, when I started at the south end, I only hit it twice. Lots less elevation change. Not too big of a concern but... Overall, felt good. Good workout.

Nemo 4x2K@T 2/8

We were supposed to get a pretty big storm, but got nowt until later in the day. School got canceled so it gave me a chance to get out on the track and give it a whack. Wasn't sure what pace to really do things, was going to go at 6:00/pace, but ended up going faster. Closer to a 5:56 pace. Overall, things felt pretty good. No real snow accumulation on the track, but enough to slicken things up a little bit. Ankle was kind of sore in the beginning, not sure if it was from the day off yesterday, or no exercises, but the stiffness went away after a little time. I really ought to keep on my exercises and see if that helps things out.
