Liked the CF MB circuit today, a lot harder circuit than what I was doing. I almost got kicked out of my own gym that I work at because some guy on the staff didn’t like that I was throwing the MB against the wall (I didn’t have a partner to throw with). Apparently he thought I was damaging the MB’s that are meant to bounce…

Session felt good today.
Nearing the end of your gpp what are some things you would have done differently?
Well I actually have the remainder of week 6 and 2 weeks + an unload week left before my tryout. I’m going to continue to finish up week 6 and 7 and do some more tryout specific stuff with the remaining time I have.
I would have kept the workouts the same on Monday and Friday, maybe do a couple sprints up to 60m while still keeping the volume at around 300-400m. On Wednesdays I think it wouldn’t have been a bad idea to have done more 300’s and eventually work down to 200’s.

Moved back home yesterday and like always my allergies are starting to irritate me.
Have you seen a doc?
I’ve dealt with the allergy issues my entire life. All the doctors do is give me samples of zyrtec, benadryl, allegra, or whatever is out there. So not really any help from them. When I move back to school, everything clears up within a day or two usually.
I remember you saying you’ve dealt with similar issues, anything work for you?
The shit that I have is really bad but it goes away 1-2 days once I return home. Mainly my eyes goes to shit, my allgergist performed a skin/blood test 2 weeks ago and prescribed some eye drops (patanol).
I’ll have to see if I can do something about mine. I usually get congested or sneezy. I also get tired from not doing anything usually.

Rested 10min imbetween sprints.
Wasn’t too disappointed in my 60 times today. I mean I did get faster from the last time I got a 60 timed back in May which was 7.24. Weather conditions were terrible today, we were planning on running earlier in the day, but it started pouring and we had to restart the warmup and everything a few hours later. T-Slow was in town today and we both are benefitting from the coach we are working with. My coach says I am not getting enough hip height when I am at top speed and my transition still isn’t smooth. He says I really need more elaticity, and could really tell when I was running the 150. He mentioned my first 30m looks pretty good, and I’m a lot better overall than I was back in May.
How’s your training going overall?
Its gone very well. I just wish I could have been more consistent with the schedule. I was pretty consistent with all of the hard CNS days, but there were too many tempo days that I either missed or didn’t take seriously enough (didn’t have time to train on a lot of saturdays).
If you don’t make the team, what’s your plans?
I want to go ahead and prepare for the annual UH indoor all-comers meet. Probably the only indoor meet that I would have access to, but one meet is better than none. Any other ideas?
Try like 5, UH hold several indoor meets+AM.
