Spead my wings and I'm flying again......

Tuesday - Noon time run/speed work

Treadmill @ gym.....it's 90 today/but I didn't use the fan and choose the one closest to the open doors

1 mile warm up
5 min stretch
13 mins of drills outside the gym (damn it's hot!) a$$ kickers, strides, bounds, side strides
4 x 1600 @ 7:30 pace or 8mph for 7 1/2 mins; 90 sec floats at 10:00 pace

1st 1600 - HR 170-180 (this isn't so bad z3)
2nd 1600 - HR 180-185 (ok, feeling it a little bit now; z4)
3rd 1600 - HR 182-190 (check it out yo, I'm flying! z4-z5)
4th 1600 - HR 185-190 (Ick, my tummy doesn't feel too well, z5)

Successfully completed run/speed work. Haven't done mile repeats in over a month. Forgot how they felt, painful & GREAT! I am so happy to be back to training hard. I have once again found my long lost love, we're so happy to be reunited.
