stretch:- 4:30 PM: everything
relaxed 1050m walk back recovery: 3:59, 3:46, 3:43- 10 AM
- felt crazy fast .. fueling up last night contributed to that
- those last two intervals are ~5:4x pace
damn. hamstrings sore, but felt great. ate alot last night for the Canelo/GGG fight, so I was properly fueled this morning. These were "moderate efforts" but very relaxed. Last ~km could have been significantly faster, noticed my form was breaking down 3/4ths into the run then fixed it. Once I fixed it during the run, I kept looking at my watch and my pace improved immediately. That's good to know.
The form break down was, a "roll from heel to toe", which is more of a slower strike for me. Once I made some adjustments and got back to a "flat foot strike" (quicker GCT), I got faster & it felt more effortless.
Most of the runs i've been doing recently aren't "properly fueled". This is intended, as i'm trying to lean up to the max. So fueling up makes me feel ridiculously stronger.
Plus it's hot af out.. This workout is a good sign IMHO.
bw:- 11 AM
- ng pullups: BW x 10 @ 8 + 2 dead hang
- full dips: BW x 10 @ 9 + 1 hang
- standing single leg raises: x 20
- standing single leg abductions: x 20
calves/tibs+peroneals/hamstrings sore/tight.
speed work: sidewalk speed - full recovery: ~320m (53.7), ~290m (48.7), ~240m (43.1), ~210m (36.7), 6 x ~177m (30.5, 30.7, 30.0, 28.8, 28.2, 26.4
felt pretty fast tonight!
everything with relaxed acceleration build up, except for the last ~175m where I hit 26.4s (~4:08 min/mi pace). All of the intervals were basically low 4 min/mi pace with running form not sprinting form (like usual), that was the goal. Keep hammering that pace so my body gets more used to it and can produce it more easily.
TBH, i'd like to be able to produce sub 4 min/mi paces easier. Almost seems mental.. like how is 4 min/mi the barrier for me, why not 3:50 or 3:55? Almost seems like my brain is playing tricks on me.


Going to try a new style of progress tracker: monthly, embedded into my journal posts. Obviously this should be something fancy/amazing by now but, will make do with this. Also, going to go "across" rather than down, so it all fits into one small block.
TBH, I really like this so far.. even though I only have a few data points thus far.
