Need For Speed

I am actually getting to my blog two days in a row, which is a bit of a record lately. I'd like to promise that I'll keep this pace up, but end of term projects are coming up, and I imagine those will occupy a lot of my time in the coming weeks. Here's hoping I can stay on top of the blog.

I'm doing a relatively decent job keeping on top of my training. Today I headed to the UNBSJ gymnasium for a little speed session. I didn't have a lot of time to waste - I had to jam with Clinton Charlton and get groceries, and it was closing in on 8PM when I started - so after a ten minute warm up, I proceeded with six four hundred meter repeats over a minute faster than my planned five kilometer pace, plus cool down. I had no problem with the speed, but I know that I won't be able to run that fast come race day. As long as I meet or exceed my goal on Saturday, I won't complain.

Until then, I will go back to my relatively pedestrian running pace. Hopefully I didn't leave all my energy on the treadmill today.
