Trying to turn up the intensity, it’s real cold now (cold for New Orleans anyway) so if I can put up those time in these conditions, I can go well under my goals for the year easy.
Im in Baton Rouge and its the same temp just about except it rains more there but around this time the high might get up to the mid 50’s on warm days maybe the mind 60’s and low could be anywhere from 30 to 20 degress.
I 'm alone right now, no coach and the rest of the group isn’t going to be out there til the end of the month. Well yesterday it was around 40, couldn’t tell you the average for the rest of the week, but it couldn’t have been much higher. I’m glad I don’t live in New York, I wouldn’t even make it to the track.
Yesterday I felt awful, nothing went how it was supposed to. I struggled through all the 300’s, the goal was to go 36 or better for all of them, none were better than 36.4. All 4 of my starts were horrible, somone timed me on one of them it was embarassing. I knew something was wrong when I couldn’t get up for work. Just got back from the ER, turns out that I have the flu. Never had it before, so I just thought I was just out of shape. So the closest I’m coming to a track for the next couple days is watching the 2000 olympics on tape.
Very short day, I’m not back to full strength yet, so I’m not going to overdo it. I’m not sure with whatt intensity these 150’s should be run, so if anyone has any ideas, feel free to share.
