3 in the morning.

Kosmin in the afternoon. I did 1 min all out, 3 min rest, then 1 min all out. It's supposed to sort of predict what I can do an 800 in or something like that. First minute was good, I think I crossed the 400 in 56 or something, but the next minute I was pretty tired and barely made it around to the same spot. Was hoping to go a little farther on the second and thought I had a little more time but it wasn't too shabby. I think my legs might've forgotten what track feels like and they got a refresher today.

3 in the morning. Slightly colder today.

Warm up, 8x200m hill repeats, cool down for about 5 miles in the afternoon. Felt pretty good. Some good ol' weights after. Getting so swoll!!!!

Met out in Warner Valley for a tempo run on the usual road. Nothing fancy. Felt pretty good for what I think was the first endurance workout of the track season.

9 miles in the afternoon out in Washington on some trails. Fun run. My body is super tight and needs some serious rolling out and stretching. :P

6.5 in the afternoon for our workout at Webb Hill. Felt pretty good, but I went to tiki during lunch and that wasn't sitting too well.

3 in the morning. Really achey in the legs, I don't think I've been stretching and rolling out well enough since we started up so I'll have to do that.

8 miles in the afternoon out in Leeds. Felt tired.

Good ol' Kenyan run, Tanner led and it was pretty sweet. Afterward, we watched a little movie about this running school thing in Kenya and it talked a little bit about David Rudisha. Dude's an animal.

Raced the 800 at the Olympic Oval today. Not too great a race but wasn't terrible. Weird to run the 800 again.
