6.5 easy on the ridge with strides

morning- 3 easy

afternoon- did the kosmin test for our first workout of the year. my legs felt like garbage, but i improved from last year. i wasn't as close to josh as i would have liked to be, but that'll change. also i almost caught some of the 800 guys on the second one, so that was kinda cool. i made it about 1500m. we also did 4x300m progression finishes with pushups in between, it felt hard to sprint on these because my legs were so dead, but i finished off strong. weights after.

morning- 3 easy

afternoon- 8 easy out at navajo for wilderness wednesday. the pace felt too easy and i wanted to run ahead a little but i didn't want to be that guy so i just ran with the group. i should get rid of that mentality though, because dropping the pace on the easy runs a little bit is beneficial.

morning- 3 easy

afternoon- 2.5, drills, 8x200m hill repeats with recovery jog back to start, a bit of a cool down, then weights. i worked on form and easing in to this workout, and i felt decent about it. i ended with t pushups on weights, so that was killer.

Ran 4 booking it before work.

Ran 7 easy. Would've been nice if someone told me we were doing 8, I ran on my own.

8 easy. Felt good

morning- 3 easy

afternoon- 3 mile warmup, 18 minute tempo, a bit of a cooldown. we ran 6:13, 6:00, 5:42. felt super easy, we were talking through most of it, i think were in pretty good shape right now. legs feel good.

Morning- 3 easy

Afternoon- weird run out by church rocks. I'm sure it was long so I'm guessing 8.5 

Morning 3 easy

Afternoon did a half mile then 2 mile warmup with a Fartlek up Webb hill which went like 15 sec then 30 45 1 min 2 min and back down. Felt pretty good especially on th 1 and 2 minute ones. I just need to get faster sprinting wise then those shorter ones won't be as hard.

morning- 3 easy

afternoon- 4.5 easy. i feel confident with my running so far, i can't wait to race. maybe i'll sign up for some local 5ks or something, i need to race. it's like crack.

8 easy felt good

morning- 3 easy

afternoon- 2.5, 8xMcgruff hills with 4x200m progression grass finishes, and a tiny cooldown. felt decent except for my stomach, but i pushed through it and ran really hard today, so felt good about that.

morning- 3 easy

afternoon- 8 easy out in leeds

morning- 3 easy

afternoon- 4 warmup, 20 minute tempo (about 3.5 miles) with a small cooldown, with weights after. felt really good in the tempo, definitely didn't have to go to the well for this one. weights was good, i can feel myself getting stronger. 

Also I just remembered something from the tempo; right at the start I was starting to feel a sideache and I just remember telling myself that I didn't have a side ache and nothing was hurting and it went away. Pretty cool how your mind is stronger than your body 

morning- 3 easy

afternoon- 4.5 easy kony run. felt good and had a good talk with coah about indoor track, basically it's not worth it.

morning- rest

afternoon- 2.5 warmup, 4x800m hill repeats, 2 mile cooldown. felt pretty good. my form felt good until it got reall sloppy with the mud, but on the last one i worked on that and it overall felt like a really good push. good stuff from everyone today.

Ran 10. Felt good and I lik running solo
