Well me and coach decide to have me "run through" the meet tomorrow. Which means to not rest for it and just continue training as usual. So we are taking this first meet as more of a time trial. I am going to do all of the distance race as well as the medley (1600, medley 800, 3200, 800m) It will be a tough schedule on some pretty tired legs, but it will be good training for me as I prepare for the rest of the season. My goal is simply to just PR in every race from last year. I would like to run: 4:29, 1:59 split, 9:57 (or faster), 1:59. I think they are times that I am definitely physically fit to do, but that will be challenging. I will then use these times as a starting point to work off of for the rest of the season. Today we started with a 2 mile warmup, ran 4*200m with the first to relaxed :28, :28, and the last two all out :24 high, :25. My legs felt pretty heavy but that 3rd 200 was one of my fastest ever, so I guess I am still doing alright. Afterwards I finished with a 7 mile run. Legs felt heavy and tired, but I am still excited for tomorrow.
