Weak MPW

Sunday, May 2, 2010
A pretty lame week, mileage wise - the practices and race went pretty well, but that was all the running I did. I can't figure out if it was allergies or something else, but I felt like a piece of pizza that has been frozen and microwaved 3 times looks. Congested, muscle pain, sore throat - usually an indication I am about to get run over by the Mack truck that is influenza. So I basically didn't run on non-practice days, hoping to recover enough to be able to get on the track and do workouts - they're kind of more important this time of year anyhow. I'm not sure that this is normally what you should do when you get sick, but thankfully this illness wasn't severe enough that my lack of common sense did any real harm.

Sun: Brown Springtime Invite
7 mi warmup / cooldown w Alliette and Foote
1500m - 4:02.xx. 65 / 2:10 / 3:15-6 w 47-46 close
Good race! Cold and rainy, but this is a pretty spanking solid time for this early in the season, especially off a slower pace through 800m.
Mon: off
Tue: 6 mi warmup / cooldown
5x1200 60R - another cold and crappy day that improved as the workout went on. Managed to actually stick to the pace despite weather - all 3:50's.
Wed: off (still feeling awful)
Thurs: 6 mi warmup / cooldown
3x200 2x300 3x200
with Steve and Colin...can't think if anyone else was there.
Fri: still off (wtf, body)
Saturday: 6 mi warmup / cooldown
3x200 2x300 500 2x300 3x200 600
90R throughout except 10 minutes before the 600.
31, 31, 31, 46, 46, 1:18, 47, 47, 31, 31, 30, 1:26
REALLY GOOD
REALLY HOT
PICTURES WERE TAKEN

tot: 33 miles, 241 mins

I'm planning on getting back on the ball this week. One week down won't kill me this late in the game, considering my collegiate endeavors at the end of the season were mostly off of practices and biking for recovery days.
