Nice. I'd double and triple distance events if I could but my league doesn't allow double distance, which I think is stupid. So the most I can do is a distance/4x400 double, which definitely isn't bad but it'd be better if I could triple mile/2 mile/4x400 or something.
Wednesday, 11/28:
6.5 easy, 6:30 pace. Again, didn't start picking it up until 2 or 3 miles in. Just feeling good, not pushing myself much.
4x150m accelerations (starting at ~stride pace, finishing the last 30-50m hard)
Weight room:
2x 1 minute sprinter curls (hard pumping of the arms w/ 5 lb weights)
1x Shoulder lifts (difficult to explain, but it's something like 50 reps of lifting with 5 lb weights)
3x12 Shoulder presses, 20, 20, 15 lbs. 30 seconds rest between each set
9 minute abs (3x3 minute abs, no rest. 30 sec crunches, 30 second left side crunches, 30 second right side crunches, 30 sec leg lifts, 30 sec bicycles, 30 second v-sit)
Myrtle Routine
Overall a good day. My coach clarified, by "speed work" he meant 200-400m intervals, which isn't too far off of what we did for the bulk of our season. He just wants to skip doing threshold thousands or longer repeats for the first week because of all the work we did in cross country, which makes sense to me. First workout is on Saturday.
