Speed Work

I thought about running a slow third mile today and just couldn't get it done. I was wiped out at the end of my fartleks.

I did better on my mile, but I definitely went out much too fast. Hopefully my lack of experience on this run translates to a better experience on future runs and especially the race. What is the saying?

Experience is something you get just after you could have used it?

Anyways, I also started out way too fast on my fartleks; I forgot that I was supposed to run, not sprint, for 30 seconds. I had to stop the first one at 27 seconds because I just couldn't run any more. Yes, I put 30 seconds...you caught me....

So, a good run for learning, not so good for how I feel afterward.
