Week 2 Summary

Second true track workout of the year is gonna be on Wednesday this week due to a little rescheduling. I'm happy to do DC or VA depending on interest. Workout is 6x200m, each under 30 seconds. Just getting back into it. Nothing crazy.

Wednesday, Jan 19th -
Last Wed I did a conditioning mile and then a full weights workout with Laura (props!). On Thursday I did a 50-100-150-200-300-350m interval workout. I walked the same distance just ran. These were run at a tempo pace, not a sprint. The 300m was at 50-51 seconds and the 350m was at 57 seconds...right about the pace I wanted.

Saturday, Jan 22nd -
On Saturday, I played two hours of football and then went to the gym for a full lift. I ended up cutting it a bit short...3-4 hours is a bit much this time of year, it seems. I did squat jumps on the rack @ 95 lbs but moved to the leg press for the heavier stuff. I also did an upper body circuit and pull-ups. Laura represented with a gusty gym effort of her own.

Sunday, Jan 23rd -
On Sunday, Agan and I braved the rapidly sinking temperatures for a 3x500m workout with 300m walking recovery. This was certainly miserable. The goal was to pass the 400m mark at 70 seconds...we were a bit over that pace and then faded down the last 100m each time. It was great having Agan there. We then threw for about 30 minutes (another 100 throws closer to Agan's goal!). Then the sun went down and it got freezing and homeward we went.

Heading to the gym for weights tomorrow. Track, again, on Wed. Then 20 minutes of 1-minute runs followed by weights on Thursday. Hey-yo!
