Overview : This workout was very intense. A friend of mine recommended it. Due to the fact that it was about 5 degrees when we started; we did two of the 200's to get warmed up. The objective was to do the 600 almost all out, recover 200 and do an all out 400. This proved to be very difficult. The lactic acid rush was practically unbearable (but exhilarating). Now that we had taxed our systems we had to try and do some pretty fast quarters. I turned the 3rd one into a 200 not by choice but by demand. I absolutely could not finish. This was frustrating but I knew that I had done most of the work. This motivated me for the final 200 which I hammered out in 25 seconds. This was a good finish and hopefully will give me the skills I need to close a good mile at Terrier. I am getting pretty pumped to show "Obvious Stater" what a slow marathoner can do on the boards.
We'll be calling you the chairman of the boards pretty soon!
ReplyDeleteThanks for pulling me through this tough workout! I think it will be just what you need to show "Obvious Hater" your track wheels.
ReplyDeleteNo problem. It was a good one. Can't wait for the next.
