AM: Conditions: 7 AM. 52 degrees. 14 mph winds. ISU track. Raining. Pace workout with Brett. Workout: 8x300m @ Goal 5k pace with 100m jog. (55s goal pace). Bright and early for this workout. Got soaked on the warm-up but then it stopped by the time the workout began. We traded reps just try to get comfortable with it goal 5k pace. 55 avg. we originally planned on doing 12 but we both felt we accomplished what we wanted to at 8. Personally my legs felt a bit sluggish after the mile. Aerobically I felt fine tho. Once I cut back the mileage a bit more I’ll be sharper. I’m not overly dead tho. PM: Conditions: 3:45 PM. 54 degrees. Maxwell loop. Easy run. Accidentally kicked a dog. Was listening to music and felt like I tripped over a tree branch but really I slightly kicked a small dog that escaped from its owner mid stride. Luckily I didn’t hurt it in any ways it just ran back to its owner right after but it did startle me. Also by the baseball fields there was a horrible car crash where some guy went off the road and crash into the fence. Car was totaled but the dude was okay. As for the run I felt sluggish still but when I checked my pace after I guess I had averaged 7:00 so I must not have felt as bad as I thought.
