Felt pretty good today and wanted to go faster but kept it relaxed for speed tomorrow.

5x1000s at 5k with 3 min rest then, 3x400s at mile each 2 seconds faster than the last. Felt pretty good during the 1000s and was consistently coming in at 2nd or 3rd (shoutout to Collin) avg for them was 3:09ish.  First 400 was on pace with a 68 but couldn't drop it enough and got a 67 for the second, last was a 68 but I was dead at that point.

Let's talk for a moment about adventure. Adventure is defined as an unusual and exciting, typically hazardous, experience or activity. As such today's run was adventurous. Backyards, trespassing, and, shenanigans. Mike'so definition of adventure is: "let's run around until we feel like stopping and then make a ridiculous loop that puts us over". Twas a good time.

It all felt so right but it all went so wrong. Warmed up a mile and felt really loose, light-hearted and in a good state of mind. I don't know what went wrong but somewhere in there it went really wrong. Went out exactly as planned, got a 5:04 first mile, also exactly as planned. Yet for some unknown reason it all blew up in my face. Started to move up and pick off everybody that started too fast but after a while it just plain hurt. I did everything and everything felt right but it just owuldn't give. Second mile was a 5:37, third a 5:44 and the kick was pathetic. I felt as if everything was there and set up for me to succed but my body just couldn't give what I know it can. Perhaps it was the food poisining, maybe it was mental preperation, or possibly even bad luck. Regardless of what happened on the course, the trip was fantastic. Now looking foward to track season and enjoying footlocker and running a race there I can feel good about.

Pretty good recovery run, feeling rather tight but nothing too bad. Abs and hips

That hurt. Turkey workout which entails; a 400 at 5k then 100m sprint where you try to beat the person designated as the turkey in a sprint. For whatever unknown reason my whole right leg just hurt after, rolled out pretty good with Mike and feeling much better now. Also shoutout to Gan for showing what she really is like when she gets angry lol and to Mike for executing a genius operation
