Thursday, July 14th, 2011

Slept ~7 hours last night, early morning training in a fasted, hydrated state...got some running ahead of me today.............

TRAINING:
- Spend 15 minutes on mobility - hips, quads, calves, hamstrings
- 30m accelerating runs to 75%; walk back x9; rest 2 minutes actively between sets 3&4 and 6&7
THEN....
Run 400m @90%; rest 4 minutes actively x4

RESULTS (400m run times):
1. 1:01
2. 1:01
3. 1:04***
4. 1:06

First two run of the 400m went well and recovery between the sets was enough to feel like full recovery...the 3rd run was briefly interrupted as I had to avoid several campers playing tag in the parking lot, so time could have been a couple seconds faster.  After completing the 3rd run, I felt like I got hit with a mack truck - the 4 minutes of recovery wasn't long enough and I felt like I hit a wall..the 4th run at 1:06 was rough, probably closer to max effort than 90% just to get this time...felt good to get some running in, haven't done this in a while.

Post-Training Meal #1 (immediately post):  Liquid Shake w/30g CHO, 25g Protein, 5g L-Glutamine
