4 in the AM. I wanted to do a PM run but I found out that my physics professor had granted me a chance to redo all my physics homework for extra credit, but I only had 5 hours to do the 2 months worth of HW. I finished it with one minute left at 11:59PM and I still have some Engineering and English so I think the time for running is not currently present. Sorry to all my fans, I'll make it up later in the week when I have more time.

School + 4 laps of Hilton Park. Ran the third lap at approx. tempo, and tried to do the fourth lap at what felt like low 6-minute pace and speed up a bit the last 200m or so. Was more on feel since there aren't any markers on the .75 mile laps. Ran 5:30 pace on the "tempo" part, and 5:42 pace on the slower part. On the 4th lap, I thought I went way slower than low 6 minute pace because it felt that easy. Legs felt like they could have done a lot more, lungs hurt but that's just me getting over a sickness. I've been really really slacking with workouts lately so I was afraid all my fitness was gone, but this really felt pretty easy. It wasn't supposed to be hard though, it's more of just feeling what tempo pace should be for my tempo run tomorrow.

AM - 4. Went to Jason's Deli after. Felt odd as I used to go there all the time growing up in Texas, but being alone gave me some time to reflect on things like growing up. And how the 7.99 salad bar is a major steal. Definitely got my money's worth from that.

PM - I hit the first 1.5 miles of my tempo at under 5:10 pace and stopped there. I wasn't yet, but I knew with my current fitness, blowing up would be right around the corner. Still, surprised it was that fast!

Went to class in the morning and slept all day after since I've been doing schoolwork until very late lately, so all my miles were saved for around 7PM. Started at 7:20's per mile and worked down to what the tempo yesterday was supposed to be around(5:40's per mile). 6:30 average pace, so right in the middle of 5:40 and 7:20.

Shakeout at 3 PM. Pure jogging, + a stride and some drills after.

Workout at 8PM, 2x(600, 400, 300, 200) with next-interval recovery. I ran 1:49, 70, 47, and 31 for set one and 1:45, 64, 44, and 29 for set two. Left knee feels a little sore after from driving my knees up after no speedwork in a good while.

AM - 4. No knee soreness as i stretched a good bit last night, but legs still felt very heavy. Glad I got it done. Not glad about IOS 11 bugs.
