I'll jump on the bandwagon. I'm always curious what other people have been doing.
This past week this is what I did:
12/23: 17.3 miles, 1:54:41
12/24: travelling
12/25: 7.1 miles, 47:49
12/26: 3.25 miles warmup/cooldown, 25 minutes
5x400m with 60 rest: 61, 64, 63, 65, 70 (this was rough outdoors)
12/27: 6.75 miles, 45:46
12/28: 9.5 miles, 70:00
12/29: 9.5 miles, 70:00
54 miles
normally I would do a 30-45 minute tempo run on mondays.

Eddy what will you be running?
Nice time on the 800. Have you and your coach considered something like and open 800 and a 4x4 and come back a week later at Mt. Sac and run the 1500? Might be a good change of pace and help you work on some other systems.
You are on the right track, have more confidence.
Good luck this weekend!!! I'll be at UCLA cheering you on.

I'm just running the open 15 @ UCLA. I would love to run the 800 as well, but they are too close together.
4x4?! HA! I could probably run 53 split, but come on...at UCLA??
I may not make Mt. Sac, but we do have another meet to go to that same weekend.

Maybe we can meet up and cool down together....possibility??
I wasn't running at UCLA but volunteering at the meet and saw eddy run 4:00:33 today. It looked like he came through 1100 in 2:57. His teammates were on the backstretch going nuts while he was racing. You were so close, I'm sure you'll get it next time eddy!!
Ouch... So close!

Most of those guys were in the first heat. He was up in the front of his heat.
0.33. OK, now he's just messin' with us
Hey Eddy congrats on another PR.
Eddy I wish you well, hopefully someday you will break this elusive barrier. .34 seconds away, ouch thats gotta hurt. But hey Eddy don't let it get to you. I give you credit for a personal best!
Eddy, it's time to pull out the heavy artillery. Get mad. Next race step up to the start and yell, "I am tired of these motherf***ing four minutes on this motherf***ing 1500!"
Go Eddy!
Better to yell "gobble, gobble, mutherf*ckers" ....
Wow, this thread was started in December 2007 when Eddylee still had a modest pr of 4:16. Nice Eddy!
The day Eddie does it (which will be soon), the BroJos had better devote a front page article or a quote of the day to him. This will be legendary.
Is this guys name seriously Eddy Lee? I thought it was some lame Rush reference since a lot of kids on this site seem to think there's something good about Rush.
great job, eddy. now change your mindset for the next race. you sometimes see guys like Sam Bair run repeatedly just over their goal time because they are targeting that and set out at that pace, always falling short as they tire. Set your sights a little bit higher, say, 3:58, so that mentally you are preparing not to run at the threshold but beyond it. Good luck!
it's time to get kicked out of school, move to the woods and run 140 miles a week! Take it to the next level!
I copy & pasted Eddy's remaining schedule. 4 more meets to go and your college career is over. Come on, man. Do it!!! Will it be at Mt Sac or Bryan Clay that you break sub-4??
Apr 16 -
Apr 17 Mt. SAC Relays, Walnut, CA
Apr 16 Bryan Clay Invitational, Azusa, CA
Apr 24 Tommy Lister Invitational, Los Angeles, CA
Apr 24 Triton Invitational, La Jolla, CA
May 01 Fresno State, Fresno, CA
I'm calling it first. Eddylee WILL break 4 at Mt. Sac relays.
