Intimidated. I noticed stars. A remorse.


I noticed stars throughout this exercise’s last set, which isn’t an exaggeration.  The difficult factor about 300m intervals, I realized, is that you simply go the identical tempo as 200m intervals, however then you need to grasp on for one more 100m to complete them.

A very good observe exercise the place you hit that anaerobic state feels cleaning afterward.  I’m undecided if it is because you place out all the pieces you’ve in you or since you really feel extra alive than ever (as a result of feeling extra ache than ever;), nevertheless it simply feels cleaning to me.

Bonus–> We noticed the BYU girls doing their last exercise earlier than the NCAA Cross Nation Championships.  I can not wait to see how they do.

We began with a four-mile w/u after which bought to the observe to do some drills (excessive knees, skips, and so forth). We then did two laps across the observe with strides on the straightaway earlier than leaping into the exercise.

3 units of three x 300m repeats.  Anaerobic was the objective, and anaerobic is what I completed.  There have been 90-second rests (half stopped, half simple) between every interval and a 5-minute simple tempo between every set.  We did these in lane 3 and switched instructions for units to decrease the prospect of harm.

I didn’t lap correctly for all 9 intervals as a result of it’s such a short while to be pushing a bunch of buttons, ha, however I couldn’t consider I used to be sub-5 for these:

I’ve an excellent feeling about Seville as a result of how good I really feel proper now, however I’m not going to lie… The flatness of the course is scaring me a bit.  I’ve by no means raced a flat marathon (I’ve sub-3s at Boston, CIM, St. George, and Massive Bear, that are all web down ((some far more than others)), so this might be a brand new problem for me!

From my buddy’s Seville Marathon final 12 months… 220 complete ft acquire and loss over 26.2 might be fairly completely different for me.
