The Comeback

ZGriff is back, due to peer pressure. Just been super busy, but what I've done is really drop the milage and focus on the races these last couplle of weeks. I feel like I haven't done enough hard workouts, but I've just got to rely on all those dual meets where I ran the 1600, 800 and 4x4 and count on that strength. I ran 2:09.61 on Friday, but I went out in a 62, had a solid third 200 and took the lead and just faded the last 200. Maybe that was because I was alone, maybe because I was doubting myself thinking I may have kicked to early, maybe I just died. But the goal for region is to hang on those last 200 while running a similar race the first 600. If I can do that, look for another couple seconds coming off that time. Hopefully. But today was a fantastic day. I wanted to do a little bit of a longer run, but make it super easy. Going out I was pretty much whisteling? and skipping, enjoying an easy long run. Coming back I just felt good, I felt fast. I didn't go that fast, I averaged 7:34 for the total run, with like 7:20ish, 7:25 coming back, but the good news is that my legs felt amazing. No pain like usual, no feeling like I was dying the last mile, I just felt solid. How I wish I could have ran miles earlier in my Syracuse High Career. XC would be different, Track would be a heck of a lot different. Oh well though, I'll just have to like beat Mary Cain mono e? mono and that will make up for it. But then I did some strides at Jensen Park(Where I started running) and I felt good. I felt super loose and super fast. Plus everyone there was just looking at me and I felt stinkin legit. Almost too legit. Today and yesterday were two I love running days, that's for sure. 

36:50

37:30

Easy Run with Thomas, probably like 7:25 ish, I ran 29:30 for 4 miles, with ridiculous breaks because I was supposed to run with Thomas, he stopped to go to the bathroom, started throwing up, so I just finished. Then did the loop at the school. After the Loop I stopped to talk to the Legend our coach. It was cool, I'm going to miss that guy if this really is his last year. He'll for sure not be here when I get back, so that'll be weird. He's a great coach, I let him down that's for sure. But today was just a day to really get back into running. This week I'm not looking for any hard training, just consistant training, so that's the key.
