Lot tougher then what it look like on paper.
I’m hoping to race this Saturday if I can make my standby flight. The plan is to compete in the 100/200, not expecting much since I’m in a heavy volume phase and the track isn’t known to be a fast surface.
good luck.
Just relax n let it happen.
Sometimes, when ur in heavy training like this, i might set more realistic goals, such as:
10.9 but with a focus on being crazy smooth, relaxed and tech perfect, esp if ur under pressure, just so u can learn 2 run proper in those conditions. That gives u the confidence later when u have a 3day taper n ur going for it to pull out a good time.
Ie, sometimes a ‘easy’ 10.9 is better than a ‘hard’ 10.8. - when ur under high training load that is.
Remember, this dont apply for Tapered races.
Thanks bro, that’s the goal I think I will run a better 200 then 100 for this first meet. Off to the airport, pray that I get on the flight!!
Wasn’t able to get on the flight, will try again on Thursday.

Static Stretch
Seagrave (Prisoner squats, highland fling, front lunge, side lunge, speed skaters)
Sprint drills 3x3
mb throws x20
200-200-300-300 7min rest
The past two Monday’s the wind has totally screwed my workouts, the 200’s were very easy and the 300’s were tough because of the very strong headwind…:mad:
When you running again
Next Saturday.
Tuesday:
800m jog
Static Stretch
Seagrave (Prisoner squats, highland fling, front lunge, side lunge, speed skaters)
Sprint drills 3x3
3x50-40-30 - blocks (4mins rest) (5mins set rest)
4x150@20-19-19-18 7Min rest
1x4x30 sled pulls
The block starts were done in spikes and the 150’s in trainers, overall very good session. Weights in about 2.5hrs!!!
SO you did a speed /tempo session?
Where do u see tempo??
the 150’s you were not exactly runnong them hard were you. I wouldnt call them spec end or speed end. Looks more like a intensive tempo pace. imo
My friend I did 9 very fast block starts follow by 150’s with trainers. I would call the 150’s controlled speed work based on what CF mention last summer and my PR’s. Those same 150’s with spikes on probably would have been 18-19/17-18/17-18/16-17.
If I decide to compete this outdoors, I will blaze come May-August.
