Family Run+200s AT Recovery Day 6 5/19

Another easy kind of day. Family miles to the track, then 200s. Did the 200s around 38, which felt good. Late on this so can't recall exact feelings...

4x(200/200, 200/400, 800/400) 8/15

Did the workout I was going to do on Monday. Felt better than Monday. Still a bit tired. 200s were pretty easy, the 800s were a bit tougher... Didn't hit what I should have on any of them, but they were 2:31 and the last was 2:30.

Left achilles tendon is a bit sore. Think it's some sort of tendonitis, but...

Crap Day 8/12

Worked last night. Attempted to do my Q1 workout. Didn't work so well. Did the first set and had nothing in me. Difficult to even keep a 37 200, for a 2:28 800. Did one set plus an extra 200 and quit. Did a few miles barefoot on the track. Figured best not to kill myself for crap, better to save it for later...

11x400@R 7/30

Called for 10-12 400s. Did 11. Almost quit at 10, but 9 was fast and 10 was slow so I did 11. Found it really hard to hit 74s. I might have been able to do it in spikes, but wore trainers. My left heel is pretty sore. When I grab the achillies tendon it's pretty sore. Brother coach thinks it might be tendonitis. Hoping it's not. Need to start icing a bit, see how that works.

5x(200/200/400)@R 7/23

Did two today. Hit the track and did a 5x200/200/400. Felt better than when I did it last week. Not nearly as hot. Humid. Achilles a little sore, felt bruised, but not as bad as it was. Some easy stretching and keeping it easy ought to help.

5x(200/200/400)@R 7/17

First workout in sometime. Felt pretty good muscle wise, but the heat was pretty killer. Shouldn't have done it in the heat, but did. Felt good. Did a fair bit barefoot and not feeling ankle wonkiness - starting to think it's the damn stroller.

Jumped in the stream after the 200s of the third set. totally killed my 400 time coming back, but got on it there after. Huge blister on the heel again. Did the last two sets barefoot.

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.

400@R/2x1600@I/2x1200@I/400@R 4/11

Mix-mash workout. Got a little cold out tonight, but wasn't too bad. Ankle felt a little strange to start, but felt okay once I got to the track. Pretty tight after the workout. Think it's the workout that tweaked it a bit. 400s were tough. Hit my times pretty spot on.

Wore the Altra Instincts to the track and back. Only 2.2 miles so probably not enough to tell, but... Nice big blister from the KKs. Tried to go sockless and it didn't workout so well.

Faster than last years workout. Jogged 400 recovery for R-pace, 600 for 1600, 400 for 1200.

4x200@R/3x1000@I/2x400@R 3/26

First real Q workout that had some faster paced stuff. Done a few threshold workouts on the track this year, and attempted an I-pace, but this was the first to bring in some R-pace stuff. Felt pretty easy - said the same thing last year - but as this workout is kind of the first quick one of the season, it's not bad. Still wish I took my advice and added another 1000 or two. Maybe next year I'll remember.

Hard to pace 200s, but did okay once I got the first one out. The 1000s were a ton easier than the other day with the snow on the track. 400s were harder, and slower than the 200s, but still not awful. My calves are sort of tight, and my right calf felt a little strained. Day off tomorrow and lots of rolling/stretching should hopefully help it out some. Hit times for a vdot of 61. For r-pace jogged equal distances, for i-pace jogged 400. Did the last 400 recover plus 800 extra barefoot.

Still congested and dehydrated.

2x400@R 1200@I 2x1600@T Down 9/7

Decent workout. Wasn't what I had planned, but still pretty good. Was talking with brother coach and went into it not exactly sure what to do. I was debating doing 2x1600@I and 2x1000@I. I was going to do it, but got to the 1200 mark of the 1600 and pulled out.

These workouts that run through all paces are pretty tough. Legs are tight and sore, but it's a good sore.

First real workout in two weeks. Felt pretty good. Calves didn't bother me at all. Though the workout felt kind of easy. Didn't want to push it too much first day back back. I think next season this workout could use some revamping. Definitely too easy. Toss another two 1000s on and I might have something, but 3x1000 isn't anything.

Really pleased with how I handled this injury. Hopefully it stays away.

Ladder workout of sorts. Felt pretty good, but the 800s were killer. Not sure why, but I find them really hard. I can hit the 400s without a problem, but 800s are tough. Gotta work on my speed a bit I guess... Muscles a bit sore in my legs.

4x(200/200 200/400 800/400)@R 7/25

Was going to do a threshold workout today, but wanted to give the ankle a bit of a break and did an R workout instead. Not sure it was easier on the ankle, but... 200s were easy, 800s were a killer. Got them done, but they were hard. Overall, pretty good workout. Ankle doesn't feel half as bad as the other day. Pretty sure it was the drive that buggered it up. Calves a little tight, but not awful.

Ladder 7/11

Was second guessing whether or not I was going to do my fartlek or my r-pace today. Opted for the r-pace. Friday's supposed to be hotter so figured the woods would be better. Ankle felt fine, little full, but no tweaking. Wore my new homemade huraches for the warm-up. Took me a minute to figure out the proper lacing technique, but they feel comfortable - not feeling the rope between my toes.

I kind of came up with this workout on a whim. It was supposed to be 35/40@t, but wanted to get some quicker r-pace stuff in. When I was making it up, it looked tough and I figured it would be enough. As it was the back to back 800s were tough. I remember in GA having a hard time hitting my 800 r-pace stuff. Today was a lot easier. Not sure if I didn't do enough, but I tagged on an extra 400/200 at the very end.
Workout went 200/400/800/800/400/200/200/400/800/400/200. Recovery was an easy jog of equal distance except for the 800 where I ran a 400.

12x400 7/1

First workout of the CHaD season. Felt pretty good despite the heat. Was going to go earlier, but went at nap time. Wanted to do the 1600TT, but wasn't up to it between the heat and the lack of sleep. Think I'll do mile repeats Wednesday and the TT Friday evening.

Did 12x400 today. First workout in a long time at a VDOT of 61. Said I should be doing 74 400s which seemed a bit fast to me, but as it turned out was totally doable. Could have slowed down for a fair bit of them. Ended up doing about 2:05-2:20 for the recovery. Dumped water on my head after everyone. Did the last recovery with my eyes closed, then went and laid in the stream before I finished my cool-down. Wasn't as hot as GA 1500s at 100, but still pretty damn hot, especially on that track.

4x1600@T 6x200@R 2 Mile Accl. 5/18

Started the workout with a 1600 time trial. Wasn't sure if I could break 5:00 but was really hoping to. Went out in 68, 2:23, 3:37, 4:52. Almost quit at 400 because it was too fast but stuck it out. Pretty stoked about it. Took about a ten minute break and did an 800 in 4:17. Then did the rest of my workout. 200s were quick, though the acceleration run was junk. Too much too slow. Definitely won't be doing another in the future.
