Week 5, Day 4

Workout - 4 am wake up, 5 am workout
Max V Warm up
200m skip

Set #1 (flying 20m) - 2.04, 2.04, 2.04, 1.98
Was obviously very consistent. Took my time to build into this workout. My stomach felt a little funny and I had some soreness. I didn’t want to push it from the start. I started feeling comfortable and began to push it a little harder as you’ll be able to see.

Set #2 (flying 30m) - 2.98, 2.98, 2.96 (had 2.86 on the watch, but I didn’t believe it)
I didn’t believe the .10 difference between rep 1 and 2 so I added a .10 to the time. I was starting to feel good, but also a little tired because of the short rest between the reps.

Set #3 (flying 40m) - 3.93, 3.93
Staying consistent but starting to get frustrated.

Set #4 (flying 50m) - 4.97
This track on the straight away is about 95m tops. I was a little nervous about how close I was getting to the wall so I timed the 40m again and hit it again at 50m. I was worried about the little space that I had to slow down so I timed the 40m and 50m so I’d at least know where I was at.

I didn’t get much of a cool down in. I felt a little sick and had a pretty serious stomach ache. I have lifting session around noon so I will do my core work then. It was a good workout over all, not sure if those fly times are very good. I do think I am more of a meet runner than a practice person. It’s how I was in college and I don’t think it’s really changed.

jw, how do you determine how much weight to do each set of like benching? most programs i have seen either have the weight stay constant or increase. y not decrease weight instead of weight? what would the effects of this be?

I decreased it myself because my shoulder was sore. Otherwise it was supposed to stay at 250. I didn’t want to hurt my shoulder or drop it on my neck.

Set #3 (flying 40m) - 3.92, 3.98

I had a feeling today could be a really good workout. I was warming up and for the first time in 6 weeks or longer I didn’t feel lingering soreness and from my past experiences with these workouts, this has been the case. I kind of thought the times were flukes, but then I had the times for the rest of them so I think today was by far my best workout of the season. I’m really excited to see what I can run! I didn’t get to the flying 50m. I felt really sick. It was really weird, but I felt like I was going to throw up. I got really dizzy. So I stopped :frowning:
