Windy and light rain wet grass condition. Had rested a while and did my stretches and didn't feel fast because maybe I forgot to loosen my legs before running, but arm stretches helped me in the runs. Wet grass made it slippery but my tiredness is reducing, which is good.

what's the arm stretch that you're doing? sorry if you already posted about it and i somehow missed it.

The arm stretch involves having both arms straight in front and swing backwards until they touch I try to make it touch behind chest.
Also as far up and back as possible and swing down back as far as possible than do alternate one up and one down and swing back as far as possible and swing in opposite direction. Keeping arm straight always. Also I try bring my arms back like the first one but approach it slowly not forced.

Also felt I need to shake my legs by kicking downwards on air to loosen the legs also just before running.

No pain no gain.
You need determination and strong will if you really want something you should push yourself.

It was raining outside, an average amount, like a normal rainy day. So I decided to still go out but make it a quick workout. Went to the field, did quick warm ups. I run without my coat, so I take off my coat and ran the 116m full out, it felt fast, I walked back after and ran again straight away, so a walks rest back and ran again, but this time felt even faster than the first as I was loose from the first run maybe, felt I could have probably have got under 16 seconds. I then walked back after the second run and ran again straight away. So three runs consecutive with walk back as rest at 100% effort, the last one was as good as the first one.
Still raining, so did some heel walks and walked home to stretch. Good workout ruined by rain, but the arm stretch is really helping with my speed.

It was a windy day again and wet grass due to rain previously, but decided to bring my coat, to measure my time, as the stop watch is in my coat pocket, without it I can't run with it around my neck. So went to the field did the regular warm up, which went well, then I rested for about 5 mins. It started to rain lightly that i could feel it and light wind. I was ready to time myself and try to get a good explosive start, as soon as I exploded out, at around 20m, I slipped because the angle and wet grass and rain, I was very close to falling; where your feet is behind your body about to fall, but continued to run, but rapidly tried regain composure, as i was close to the floor, and had to come upright to prevent the slipping and about 30m out, I was upright, and just exploded and zoomed, felt my arms had more to do with me being fast that day as well, at 30m onwards I just felt so fast and some tiny slips that didn't bother me and made it to the finish line. I thought it was going to be a slow time due to the messy slippy, which slowed me down at the beginning, but looking at the time, I got 16.75  :headbang:. So if I had a good start, without slipping, I would have probably gotten 16.2 hopefully or maybe less, I don't know how much it slowed me down by. But it was a good workout, afterwards, the following runs, felt nice and fast also.

Nice article, this helps me also sprinting and one leg jumpers share single leg strength. Calf strength is important in sprinting also for dorsi and plantar.

I'm going to try jumping with locked knees, I will take it as a challenge. :P

Tendon's will definitely be interesting not a muscle but still to be considered.

It was a sunny day, changing to windy to sunny. The warm up went fine and the first run as always doesn't feel fast, but the following ones, were alright. I must have tried very hard, as even though it didn't feel fast after my biceps were sore as heck. But I guess it's a good sign I put 100% into my arm swings.

It was cold windy day, I had to go without my coat, as the poles were not there so I had nothing to tie my coat down to, I had a jumper like always, I did 2 runnings and it was raining a bit, so I decided to finish off with a walks rest after the second with a third and was quickest workout ever, took 30 min. usually takes 1 hour to 1 and half hour. After I walked home, it rained quite a bit, so it was good I finished early. The runs felt fast as I approached the finish line quickly not because I felt I was running fast, so it depends on different things if I feel fast or not, explosive but slow approach, or strong, slow but fast approach to finish.

I ate late, so I had to workout late and the floor was slipper as during my runs, when trying hard I could feel slipping, so I ran them upright and that felt better.  was getting late so only had time to do 3.

It was windy day, the first few runs felt fast but the last rep, which I do after walking rest, felt flexible at the First 30-50m until my legs were feeling tired and wanted to give up, but I just strived hard to maintain form and speed all the way to the finish, especially running against head wind.

It was nice day, warm ups went fine, the first was nice, until people crowded it riding bikes. So went to the steep hill, then went to long hill, which is at side of road, so would wait for car 60-80m back and race it, beat one, lost close to another and third, it turned on the way up. But the runs felt fast.

It was a nice breezy day, if that's a word, mild wind, no sun. When I approached the workout area, I saw they had painted an athletics track on the field, it was nice to see that, the field is also bumpy and ups and downs on the track, coincidentally the 100m track was next to my running area, 2 of the 8 lanes had something in the middle, one had a big grass bump area, also the hole i got my feet in, which i twisted my ankle, which was where the football post used to be, the grass bump in the middle of the track, was the grass that grew around the football post on the other side of my training area, the finish line, there is a hole there, so that would be bad thing to have a hole covered with a big shrubby grass area, if you run and bang twisted ankle, unless they covered it, but the big grass bump is there, then the other area has a bare ground, patch. The runners would be running down, while I train running up, so the times they get wouldn't be valid, but nevertheless, I like the environment when there is an athletic meet going on, in this case, there will probably be a sports day for the high school.  nearby. The warm ups was good and the runs felt fast, until the pitch was interrupted with people and also because I started the run late, so I couldn't wait all day for them to leave.

It was again a nice hot sunny day, I did my warm ups as usual, my a skip and b skip are much better, as the more you do it the more you can adjust to what feels right. I completed the warm ups and start the workout with 5 min rest inbetween reps and after warm up. After I finished resting before third rep, people came in the pitch to play about, so i was about to move to another side of the field, until when i was about to start, they started leaving, I approach the normal place, they stall a bit, so I am thinking are they leaving, until they leave, they decided to use astroturf, which people play football that go to the school nearby, short pitch, I rejoice  :trolldance: do the third rep and finish off with 2 reps, which I do one after the other like a tempo, 120m run, 120m walk, 120m run. Improve fitness level. it was a good workout.
