April 24th. and 25th
Monday– Attempted 4 x 400m on cinders today @ under 2:00 (8:00 pace) with 2 minutes recovery. Ran 1:45, 1:46 , 2:00 & 2:04. Felt a little twinge in my hamstring on fourth one, so had to slow down the last 50 meters. With warm-up and cool-down a total of 2.7 miles. I iced the hamstring and my sore foot after the run and both seemed pretty well today. The workout was pretty demanding on both my aerobic and anaerobic system. It was probably the first time I put myself in serious oxygen debt in a long time.
Tuesday – Today I used as a recovery day after five pretty solid days of work. At the exercise room I did 15 minutes of upper body work on the weights, a 10 minute bike ride and 10 minutes on the elliptical machine. That was followed by 15 minutes of hot whirlpool to complete a relaxing evening. I hope to be back on this in this tomorrow.
