Charlize Theron looked really good in the Italian Job

Track work yesterday was exhausting.

 

Maybe I’m still recovering from my exertions of Sunday.

 

After running a few rounds on the football field with John, Ronnie and Adam, Coach arrived.  Kenneth was missing.

 

Menu- 3 x 2000 meters, the first repetition at ¾ effort, the second at 80-85% effort, and the third at 90% effort.  Many of us (myself included) failed to listen to Coach’s instructions.  Example- I completed my first rep in what I felt to be 85% effort, in 9:22.  2^nd rep- I went quite hard, forgetting Coach’s instructions and completed 2000 meters in 8:28, a whopping 50-something seconds faster.  After the second rep, Coach, aware that some of us went so much faster the 2^nd time around, preached to us the importance of knowing our own pace.  I then decided to finish the 3^rd rep with a time between my 2 reps- and I settled at around 9:00.  I managed to complete it around that time. 

 

Next up- Coach gave us 8 x 400 meters!  I was placed in the 1^st group.  After 3 reps, I sneaked back to the 2^nd group, and completed another 4 reps.  So, in total I completed 7 x 400 meters because that was the total designated to the 2^nd group.

 

31 years old soon.  Has it been 31 years already?

 

My legs are still sore.
