More track work

June 3rd,  Saturday

 

Back on the Liberty High School track today my legs felt very springy.  I began with the 6 step 1.5 mile warm up that I plan to do pre-race. My plan was to basically do that warm up and sign off for the day. Yet I felt so good that I decided to try a few 400m to see if I could run anything close to race pace since the day seemed so opportune.  I ran pretty comfortably 2 x 400m both under 1:40.  That is about 6:40 pace by myself on a deserted track without spikes. Will I run faster in a race or even be able to hold that pace for a full 1500 meters?  I don’t know. But two years ago in Minneapolis I ran in my race faster than I had ever run during any practice session. So we’re going to have to find out what happens in Birmingham. Two things I know; I am going to run the best I can and enjoy every minute of it.?

Good stats !
