Had a time trial today for practice, ran an easy 2 mile warm-up, then we had the time trial mile, which I ran at a 5:09, which is pretty good considering my lack of speed work, then we finished with a mile cool-down on the turf without our shoes.

did a 2.5 mile warm-up, followed up with 5 200s at 31-34 seconds, and an 800 at around 2:30-something.  the 800 sucked, and then we had a 2.5 mile cool down afterwards. hooray for the first speed workout of track!.......I think.......

.5 mile warm up, then we started doing speed work, 5 2 min hard, 2 min easy, 5 1 min hard, 1 min easy, 5 30 sec hard, 30 sec easy. however, i re-jacked up my hip early on and ended up jogging while everyone else finished the workout. :( 1 mile cooldown afterwards

Ran the Dogtown 5K today, and took second with a time of 18:43.  I wasn't pushing hard, but I still can't believe how slow that sounds compared to my usual times.  Lost to Brigham, who took 1st, congrats to him.

.5 mile warm up, stretch, another 2 mile warm up, then did 3 x 1000m with 3:00 minute recovery, hitting 3:18, 3:16, and 3:18.  2 mile cool down after.

.5 mile warm-up, followed by an 8 mile run with the team.  There were a couple of times where I felt like I wanted to drop, but then I'd remember that I did this voluntarily, and, somehow, would feel a lot better.
