Thoughts on a windy Wednesday afternoon interval run. Tagging @fatmaninalittlesuit because he’s also trying out intervals and expressed interest in hearing how it’s going.
Definitely a fan of intervals. Definitely not sure if 45/30 are the right intervals. But I’m able to stay out there longer without being as frustrated, so I’ll keep playing with the times and take it from there.
Much as I’m loving the intervals, I don’t know if they’ll work for Bloomsday on Sunday. The course may just be too hilly to run even 45 seconds at a time in some place. But I may set them anyway and just ignore them when I have to.
I think I need new shoes. I knew this was coming, these are almost a year old, but four days before my longest (and likely only) road race of the year isn’t really the best time to come to this realization. Hopefully with the right socks and enough KT tape, my feet won’t notice?
One of my favorite pairs of running pants died. This would be annoying at any time, but I need four pairs of comfy, race worthy leggings for next weekend’s Ragnar (one for each leg and an extra in case one ends up not being as comfy as I expected, and at least one will) and with these out I’ve only got one in mind.
I can’t wait till it’s summer and I can jump in the creek to cool down after I run!
