Rainy day. Mile warmup then another mile easy. Drills then 2X400m accelerations in 64, 64. Workout was 5X1000, alternating 200 at mile pace, 200 at 10 seconds slower, 2 min rest in between each 1000. Split 30, 45, 32, 43, 33 for 3:03, then 32, 46, 32, 46, 33 for 3:09, then 32, 45, 33, 45, 33 for 3:08, then 31, 47, 33, 45, 33 for 3:09. At this point I was really struggling and I was tired of hitting 33s so I told myself if I hit a 33 on the last 1000, I'd have to do another 1000. I really didn't want to do another one so I pulled it together and hit 31, 45, 32, 45, 31 for 3:04. Rough workout, my stomach felt awful. 3 mile cool down inside on the treadmill cuz I didn't wanna get hypothermia.
