Hard Training!

Wow, training has been had these past few days. I have been focusing on running fast and had put up some great 3 x mile and 6 x 1k workouts on a the clay trail here in Clermont. We decided to run my intervals off the track as repetitive running on the track has a tendency to do two things: 1) Cause imbalances in your muscles and 2) Cause injuries because the track is a bit harder than the trail. Other than running me and Jordan and Nic went out today and did a killer bike session. We went out to Florida Boy's Ranch Road and Bay Lake and did tempo efforts on both roads, but in those tempo efforts we played a game that Ethan and I made up last year called "Speed Limits." Basically you sprint for speed limit signs and add up your totals. Boys Ranch road has a limited number of signs, but they range from 10 up to 45. Bay Lake has a few 45s and some in the 30s. Then we did a short run off the bike which ended up being faster than we planned, but we felt good. Off to bed!
