Tough workout this morning, got over to the Dixie State track at 8:00. Today was a tough workout. Did 1 mile warm up with Aaron then we started our 5X1000's with only a 200 jog break inbetween. Calve was still feeling a little tight but pushed out the workout. Aaron really pushed me today, he was a little faster, but is really helping me get my track speed up. I still am not as strong at speed but getting better. Suppose to be at about 1:12 pace per lap and hit 3:00 for each 1000, Total time supposet to be around 15:00 to 15:10
1- 2:51 (Aaron put us out at 1:03 for first lap, I thought he said 1:13 so i kicked my 1:12 pace up and hit a 1:10. Way to fast for a first one and me and him were really mad we did this, knowing it would hurt us at the end of the workout and not stay consistent)
200 meter jog
2- 3:04 (pushed it pretty good, stayed strong)
200 meter jog
3- 3:04 (stayed consistent, they are getting tougher and i am working hard)
200 meter jog
4- 3:05 ( around the same good)
200 meter jog
5- 3:05 ( wanted to stay consistent so really bared down and got it)
Total time for workout was 15:09- so hit my goal and that is pretty fast for a 5k. Felt really good about workout, but want to be up with Aaron the whole time. He is a little faster on the track.
200 meter jog and .5 mile cool down
This workout was really good for me, showing that i need to start off slow and push it at the end. Although it kicked my butt, i know it will help alot. Feeling good about these new workouts and Aaron thinks i am doing good. The calve has tightened up, but will keep on working it and baby it.
