AM - 3 miles. Great run. I felt really good and it felt a little warmer this morning.
PM - 7.75 miles. 4x1600 at 85% (goal - 5:35) with 3 min. recovery and 1.5 mile warm/cool. Not a great workout but definitely an improvement. My times ended up being: 5:39, 5:44, 5:38, 5:37. I started off pretty well but as we started the second one I really started to struggle. I picked it up a little on the third one but on the last one I was struggling again. Coach saw that I was doing bad and he started running with me for a bit. With about a lap to go I said I couldn't do it and Coach hit me in the head and that got me going again. I actually started sprinting for like 100 meters and even though that was kind of stupid it helped me get closer to where I needed to be. Nothing hurt today so it was just my mind that made me run so bad.
