I kind of backed off this week hoping to run fast at Jesse Owens Mile.
For training I pretty much ran easy most of the week with one workout.
700m-500m-300m-200m-200m
1:49-1:24-:46 - 27.0-25.7. For the 700m I ran 100m fast-100 float-100 fast-100 float-300m kick(41.7) and felt horrible. For the 500m I did 200m hard(29)100 float-200m hard(28). For the 300m I did 100 hard-float-hard. And the 200's I did with Matt. I really felt aweful this session, I usually do the 700's in 145 or under. Afterwards I went to get a sports Massage to aid in recovery. It was painful.
Jesse Owens Classic Mile
Flew to Ohio to run the Jesse Owens Classic in Columbus. It's been one of my favorite meets and I almost always run well on that track. It was a nice day out but unfortunately very windy. I had the start of my life and was able to get right on the rabbit, a place I do not feel very comfortable. I stayed there for about 400m and was passed by another runner. I pretty much stayed in that position for much of the race except being passed one time for a few seconds. I fell asleep a bit out there and didn't pay much attention to the splits. When I finally heard the bell the leader had about 2.5 second gap on me. So in typical fashion I put my head down and went to work. I slowly started reeling him in all the way to the last 50m and couldn't close the gap any more after that. Crossed the line and saw 4:08 to Huling's 4:07. It was a disappointing time but a hard effort with such strong winds and I felt very flat with no pop. Trouble is the lack of opportunities for me to race fast. That may be my only mile this season.
