I made a real mess out of my track workout today. Jeff is in DC on vacation and I didn't get a workout for this morning. The Dallas Athletes are always at my track on Tuesday morning so I checked their web site to see if they post workouts. Sure enough, they do. I was going to follow their plan for today, if reasonable. Here's what I had: 1 warm up mile, 4x (3x300 meters at 5 sec less than 5 k pace with 100 recovery between each 300), 1 cool down mile. For me, I put this at around 7:20-7:25 pace. Somehow, between home and the track, I had a brain fart and convinced myself that I was doing 600 meters with a 200 recovery. When I got done with the first set, I was thinking this was going to be really hard today and what the hell was wrong with me. I seemed really tired. After the second set, I started doing math in my head and the numbers weren't making sense. At this point, I realized the error of my ways. I basically did the distance after the second set, since I doubled everything by mistake. I went ahead and did one more set of two 300s to get few of them in. I was kind of tapped out after that and ran a slow cool down mile. My numbers were good for the most part but the results and the way I feel about it are somewhat skewed based on my own faux pas of following the plan. It's in the books, move along and get ready for tomorrow.
