Trying not to cry Tuesdalies

Workout tonight, I'll post later, Hockey game after that.

On an Non Running Related note, My girlfriend decided to end things last night cause of the huge fuck up I made. Yeah, I did frankly deserve it, but it still hurts like fuck to lose the girl you love.

Awwww....I'm sorry runner_dude. You'll find someone better.

I'm skipping my meet today. It's gonna be hot and I have a ton of homework and I'm way too tired. Plus I'm about to have a mental breakdown. I'm gonna try to do a brick workout later, though. I'm getting kind of pissed that cross country is interfering with triathlon stuff.

Counties today.

RD, that sucks. I'm sorry.

We did 6x500 today (which began with an epic fall...the girl behind me clipped my foot with her knee and I have road rash all over my back and right knee). It was a frustrating workout--it just felt so slow.

what was your huge "fuck up"?

i'm interested in what RD did too.


1 mi. w/u, 800 Anaerobic threshold pace, 4x600 race pace, 4x200 race pace, 800 anaerobic threshold, 2 mi. c/d

6x400s. ice bathed for the first time in ages.

Easy 4 miles @ 8:25 pace.

nice!

easy 30 min. today. conference meet in 2 days (:

meet today. worst course I have ever ran, and by worst I mean oh my god the hills.
On the third hill, I actually stopped and cried for a minute... it was pathetic

on a more happy note, I was our sixth runner and it came down to a tie breaker and I won the meet for us!!!

After sleeping for an hour, I did a moderately beastly brick workout.

I started with a mile warmup on the treadmill
25 minute bike fartlek
10 minutes run fartlek
25 minute bike fartlek
10 minute run fartlek/cool down
10 minute bike cooldown

Total: 90 minutes
It felt pretty good and totally killed my legs

I have triathlon swim lesson/meeting with my coach tomorrow at 6:30 AM WOOT WOOT

easy 4.25
20min bike

Warm up
3x8 min, 3x6 min tempo, averaged ~6:10 a mile
Hill sprints and Drills
Cool down

Total: 12.5 miles

Hockey game. Lost 5-1.

I ran the slowest 5k time in over a year. 18:?? when I should be around 16:30 on that course. I hate my ankle.

800 warmup
8x800
800 cooldown.

now i am sore lol.

That's one of the main workouts the 3000 runners at my school run in track. Except with like 3 mile warm up and cool downs.

sorry about the girl


and the whole -trying not to cry thing- totally feeling it.
it was our conference meet and i came in 3rd for our team and got 10th place and ran a good time but within the last 400m i got passed by 3 people...
and when we added up our team scores we got 2nd place instead of 1st by 2 points so that means if i wasn't being a fuckin pussy and didnt get passed we would have won conference and i feel like i blew it for my whole varsity team and i think my coach is mad at me and i can totally tell that when he said "oh don't even think i'm mad at you. everyone ran an excellent race..." i totally know he was just telling me that to not make me feel bad on the last meet of the year.

god, i'm such a frinkin wimp



ugh

don't worry about it too much. one person doesn't make a team.

If you can't kick towards the end then yo started out a little too fast. Maybe next time try holding a little bit in and then pick some people off. It feels a lot better and actually helps you.
