5/18 had a meet which turned into a fiasco. Meet was supposed to be a masters and open meet. They decided the day of the meet to include aau kids. This intern totally destroyed the schedule. No body knew until we arrived. I was scheduled to run at 10 am for the 100 based on the schedule they sent out . So I ate ate 7am arrived to the track at 8 and got warm despite all the damn children. I then found out they had to reseed heats and change the schedule. So the meet went straight to hell from there. I warmed up and cooled down 3 times before I finally ran at 1pm. The worst part is they surprised us and said ok yall up out of the fucking blue. Ofcourse I wasnt warm. During my first warm up I felt prime to run really fast. Didnt feel that way once it was time to run. My supplements I had taken at run its course and I was hungry as shit. So with a tight hamstring and sore cool achilles I ran my usuall 11.2.
I wasnt too angry cause They decided to run finals. Too bad those finals didnt happen for 4 hours, and ofcourse no one knew when were running so I had to stay warm for 4 fucking hours. By then it begans to rain and now they are in a hurry. They call us to run the finals out the fuckin blu again. By this time I say fuck it im not running. THey neglected to let anyone know there would be a final in the 100 so nobody showed up. I saw no use in running alone in the rain so I packed up and got the hell out of there.
I wanted to run the 200…but I was starving and I knew they wouldnt run until late. I was right, they didnt run it until 7pm. Fucking sad. I am going to email the meet director to let him know my disgust. That is a great way to make sure know one shows up to any of your meets again.
Regarding your required 3X warmups for this day/fiasco, was the total volume of all 3 warmups combined around 2000m worth of ball of foot contacts/strikes?
