..thank goodness not every day is like today
..thank goodness not every day is like today.................. an hour to get to work leaving me minimal prep time(also had to re-mark a few questions from a test once i confirmed the mark scheme.... FLAT CHAT alllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll day.. no time for brekky so ended up grabbing a couple of biccies, lasagne for lunch(homemade so nice and healthy(ish) ) and that was it till i had a few nuts b4 training.didnt drink anywhere NEAR enough water
...ok.breathe jojo
and ewen..you cant call him soft with this...the wind was so bad in melb today that yesterday VIC police texted all mobile phones to tell them to watch out and be alerted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so werribee track which is always windy...well lol...i cant even begin to describe it today...i was puffing BIG time trying to jog my warm up.... i swear my steps were about 10cm long... i had pre-rung stu and said...... "i hope youre already thinking about what to modify today to...to which he just laughed...
but upon arrival at the track- it was pretty obvious 600s and 400s were not going to be beneficial, nay even be managed, by us sooky girls ;) -im not saying girls are sooky..but our group wouldve SERIOUSLY MUTINIED had stu tried to stick to that program(the other coaches also altered their programs!) even the one who rarely does short reps
so 12x200s at somewhere near 800 pace(supposed to be slower but we knew would be slightly faster due to the serious hand that you could feel pushing you forward(yes the wind was THAT strong)
the legs were decidedly fatigued today-which is weird since i took a rest day yesterday(was allowed-it was a choice day-run or rest..so did homework instead(year 12 test! conchy gal jojo)
anyway first rep 36(too fast) jog back the next rep 40s and all the rest ranged from 37-39 with the majority being 38s... could only jog back between for the first 7 reps then had to walk...was feeling annihilated... jog recovery-PAH-theres two words which dont go well together..change shoes after 7 reps as well-spikies were giving me little love blisters(cos my spikes were being a too friendly with my skin--hehe yes a tired crappy little joke-but hey its the BEST i can manage..gotta be some kudos for trying)
stus at another meeting tonight :(
busy week.he had a meeting yesterday and tonight, we have a dinner with his training group tomorrow, im at a camp thurday night(24hour hike) i am on duty 5-8pm, and 5am-8am (officially-really on duty a lot longer)

It was windy as hell out at Jells Park today too, I thought I was running on the spot at one stage
He WAS soft. If he was HARD he would have had you run every second 200 INTO the wind!
I suspect he's hoping some of you sooky la la girls DO mutiny so as to lighten his workload.
The wind last night was horrendous, when I was running into the headwind I felt like I was on a treadmill (ie not going anywhere).
Very windy! No-one from the training group would have been capable of running sub 20 sec into that head wind for 100m
