4 sets of 800s with 400 jog recoveries in between. The first 400 was to be “moderately hard” the second 400 was to be “hard.” I covered 4 miles total including two laps of warm up and recovery each as bookends.
We are heading into some serious heat these next few days, with the heat index predicted to reach 116. That is crazy…it will mean running indoors or very early. At 5:30 this morning the humidity was insane. There were even beads of sweat on my shins after a couple of laps.
A few things I want to mention/discuss as I am reflecting on today’s track workout:
(1) I smell really bad. I swear I put on deodorant before I hit the track, but it is apparently not strong enough to combat the stench of my beastly sweat-monsterness on days like this. What do you do to keep yourself from smelling like a swamp when you run?
(2) Something needs to be done about my hair post-workout. It is long enough now to go totally bonkers after a good sweat. How do you control your hair!?

| Yikes! Bad hair and smelliness. |
(3) I wore my Nike Frees to the track for the first time today. Double thumbs up. I love them and will continue to wear them for track workouts. Do you wear a lighter shoe during any of your workouts?
