Today's Workout

Team Track Workout
Oh wow! Today's workout was pretty intense. At least it was for me, a person who has never run recreationally in my life. We started off with some easy running drills. Then we did some strength training, which took everything I had out of my legs.

That was when they decided to have us do our first running time trial. My legs almost gave out as we started, but after about a quarter lap my legs felt a little better. I've realized that it is hard for me to stay motivated to run when I'm not running side by side with someone. It just seems so tedious to me.

Anyway, we were timed on 2 miles.
I walked for about a half lap during my second mile.
Mile 1 = 12:47
Mile 2 = 13:03
Total time = 25:50
Perceived Exertion (PE) = 70%

Thats a better time than I've been doing on the treadmill.
My legs were very wobbly by the time I was done and I know that I will be feeling this run tomorrow. Good thing I'll be swimming tomorrow. Give my legs a bit of a break.
Saturday we are doing time trials for both swimming and biking.
Should be an interesting day :)
