Silversands Middle School Track
I did one of my two prerace workouts on the paved track at Silversands Middle school. I did a 3200 in 9:49 (4:59, 4:50) then did 1 mile of straights and curves (sprint the straightaways jog the curves). It's supposed to be a threshold 2 mile. I was a little quick but it felt very comfortable so i just ran with it. I'm guessing threshold pace for me right now is somewhere slightly under 5 min. There wasn't any other sorts of aching in the shin or plantar today so I'm thinking I'm in the clear on those issues. The strides didn't exactly make me feel fast but they were alright. I should be good to go for this Saturdays Mantanza's 5k. Hopefully it'll be a good race and my first test of the year. |
