2 mile easy warmup @6:25/mi. 2x100m strides and drills. Feeling pretty sick and running around in the cold weather doesn't help. Had to do an abbreviated workout because I felt like butt. Legs were stiff, inelastic and unresponsive. I really just wish that it was summer because I hate rushing to do workouts before sunset when I have been working all day. 

Workout: 2x(400-300-200-100) w/2 min recovery between all intervals

  • 60.1, 44.1, 29.1, 13.1
  • 59.9, 44.1, 28.8, 13.3

2 mile cool down @6:46/mi. Felt pretty crummy but went and did a couple conditioning exercises, right after:

  • 3x5x135lb barbell squat
  • 3x5xmax vertical jump

Weight: 0.00
