I did 8 x 400 speed intervals at the gym and it was pretty rough. Started out with a half-mile jog at 10:10, then did the intervals between 8:45 and 8:20-ish. I had to walk between each one because of a cramp, although I would have liked to have jogged! I was nice and purple-faced and sweaty by the end : ) Some quality time with the foam roller rounded out the night.
I’ve run 95 miles so far in 2011, and I’ll break 100 miles this week!! Kind of crazy to think that this time last year, if you’d have told me I would run more than 100 miles in less than 3 months, I’d have called you a lunatic and then settled a little deeper into the couch with my glass of boxed wine.
What a difference a year makes.
