Day at the Track

Reggie Lewis Center - 47 minutes. 6.5 miles

Today was a workout day for the whole team @ 7pm at the reggie lewis center in Roxbury. The workout was 3 to 4 x 1200 for both guys and girls follow by some 400m repeats. Just like two weeks ago, I decided to skip the workou and just run. I run the warmup with the guys and then run for about 3.5 miles in the outside of the track. The weather today was very unsual. The temperature was in the high 50 to low 60. However I decided to stay inside. During the warmup I felt my achilles a bit tight but it got better as I kept on running and increased the pace. Today I also talk to coach Kevin about the indoors season. We both came to the conclusion that I am not going to have enough time to get ready for any of the big indoor meets. However we agree that i should probably run the the 3k or 5k at the USATF New England Championships in mid february. That will give me about 5 weeks to get ready. It will also give me a good amount of time to built my base back up and get ready for outdoors. I goal for this year is to improve my PRs in the 3K, 5K and 1500m. I need to get healthy really soon so that I be able to begin to workout with the guys.
