wednesday

core class in the morning...totally kicked my butt...we had these rubber-band things and did a lot of hip/leg stuff in between core sets...then some crazy jumping lunges and high knees...guess we all have a tendency to shuffle when we run...picking the knees up is an issue...so we have been working on this in core, track and specialty runs...hopefully it will make us faster :D

home for a quick breakfast...then off to an early morning Dr. apt...then to school...early but there was no point in going back home...read to catch up for anthropology (since my life for the past week has only been about chemistry...and _that_ didn't even work)...then three classes...all uneventful...except for the fact that one is canceled friday and one monday (different classes) but i'm ok with that...

did some homework for nutrition and decided to take a break for my mental health...so i cleaned...it made me happy...i know that sounds weird...but i have been missing it...it is one of the things that falls to the bottom of the priority list while IM training...just wait till i have time to bake again....it's going to be amazing :)

off to track practice...a cold front rolled into town in the afternoon...dropping the temp about 10 degrees...it was amazing...perfect running weather...we did the 2 minute work out....2m hard 2m recovery...going from ~10k pace to faster than 5k...then repeating the whole 8 minutes again...not a long workout...but a good one...had a couple miles of warm up and cool down...

good training day...feeling nervous about this race that is coming up...but also ready for it to happen...
