My Athletic Life - Tim Huntley and I had a chat about our own run stories, here are some of my thoughts on the 400/800 piece
 
1:40.9! wow.
congrats to Symmonds as well; was modelling my run training after this cat last year based on his height and weight and "style" in his power runs, a PB is a PB.

    Yesterday part 2 - 10:55

    15/10/10 wbs
    8/7/5 Pull ups

    Not sure of score from regionals, but I remember crashing hard after round 1. I believe it was 12+min, so happy with this outcome. Better game plan helped. Raining out, so runs are cancelled for now. Maybe later if it clears up.

    she, yesterday's part 2 done tonight

    10 min @ 80-90% aer pace, ea. set, 5 min rest walking
    row 250 m, 25 double unders, run 200 m -3+250m
    5 light KBS, 5 wall balls, 5 toes to bar -10+10, 26# and 14# 9ft.
    AD 15 cals, 25 m bear crawl, 25 m farmers walk - 1.5 pd/h -4

    i think those 40 ub wall balls a couple weeks ago took away all of wall balls' power over me. i didn't feel dread going into them and wasn't thinking terrible thoughts while doing them. practiced double unders during warm-up. i connected three... p.r. and i thought the farmer carry weight was a typo. 53# is no joke!
