Didn’t feel great, but glad I was able to grit it out. Solid quality volume. Kept making bargains on the last rep, we can drop after the first 400, then 800, then at that point why not just finish.
18.24, 7:16 average. Coming off of a pretty hard workout yesterday and a late night after hosting our neighborhood octoberfest, this was purposefully throttled. Do need to figure out the schedule, might need to move things to a W-F schedule so I can do the pickups. Doesn't seem smart to push saturday then do MP miles on Sunday, legs never feel up to even if I wanted to.

Another solid week, feeling some lightness again at the beginning of reps, haven't felt fast like that in years. Really enjoyed the 800m workout

Big week next w/with the PMP. Need to find a good spot for it.

Sunday long, 19.6. Felt okay didnt really push it, just seems dumb the day after a tough workout. Though i feel like im missing a key part of claytons build so need to figure something out…72 in 6 days. I think im going to keep the 6 day schedule in spirit of this experiment

Pushed the PMP due to a cold, so did 15x400s in place. This one felt way more doable at less than 100%. Will be at sea level next week, so will do the PMP out there. Also helps me negotiate Clayton's down week next week due to his race.

Actually he's racing next week, so down for that. Was supposed to do 10 x 1k + 400s but felt like garbage. Not sure if I went out too hot or just an off day.

Wasn't sure how this was going to go after flying out Thursday, golfing 36 holes w/beers (got together w/old college + hs buddies), then waking up early for the workout. So all things considered this went really well. My mantra was to let it come to me, don't force it. So went out and it took the legs a while to wake up, but then I was able to settle in pretty nicely after the turnaround.

3x2mi w/3:30-4min rest - weird morning needed the first one to really settle in. 6:14 pace for rep 1, 5:53 pace for two, and 5:49 pace for three. https://www.strava.com/activities/16241954686

This 10k clayton did kind of threw things off of schedule. Couldn't find an appropriate workout so just settled on something bread and butter. I have the half in two weeks so moving some of these back to that week.

3x(mi, 800), Mile (2min rest after mi, 4min after 800)

Took all the pressure off by headed out to the golf course. Wet and slick and undulating a bit. All by feel. Smart move was feeling the 3x3mi in my legs still and don't want to take chances as we get close to SB half.
