Track Workout

On my way to the track I picked up my free pair of Lunar Glides. I was pretty excited that they are white and orange. They will match my apartment when they are next to the door : ) Which reminds me that I have figured out why Nike is so nice to us (giving us 5 free shoes). It is because they are trying to convinced me that instead of the 2 pairs of shoes which I originally thought that I needed (one for racing- and one for training) that I need 5 pairs (one for racing long distance, one for racing short distances, one supportive trainer of longer runs, one light trainer for tempo runs, and then one every day trainer). Then when they stop giving me shoes than I will be buying way more shoes than I need: )

I had a great track workout. I felt so smooth and fluid. We did the Pre again which is 1k, 15 minute tempo, 1k, 15 minute tempo, 1k. The tempos are on a path on a river up by the North Park. It’s fun to run somewhere new and run with so many people.

North Park is a ways away though. I didn’t get back until 8:00PM at which time I called Jeff to chat because he has to get up very early (and time change). Then I made a quick dinner of quesadillas on my cute circular pan (thanks mom!). Anyway- I was still kind of wired at 11PM. Not good. However, I realized what it was. I got a free recovery drink after the workout and it ended up it had the equivalent of 3 shots of espresso! Crap! I am not going to fall asleep for awhile.
