Lots of nice quality this week. As you can see I'm still nowhere close to where I need to be for a 4:59 mile. Those 10x400m (actually they are 10x0.25mile, I use my garmin program) need to be about 74-76 rather than 78-83. I think I might have enough for a 5:2low or 5:1high but any better than that is really pushing it. I just do not have the anaerobic endurance I need for these short races. I really can't emphasize how terrible those workouts on Wednesday and Friday felt. I really dislike running that fast. It is EXTREMELY uncomfortable for me.

So far my weight loss plans have gone pretty poorly. I'm still sitting at 165. I really belive I need to be around 155 by october to break 2:50.
