Hello Friday!

It is finally FRIDAY! And on top of that it is Friday the 13th!

I am on my way today to do a presentation to a local high school. I haven't really mentioned it before but I am going to college in the field of Engineering. So I was asked to go to a local school (since I also graduated from a local high school in the area) and talk about my experience and why I chose to go to school for Engineering. I am kind of nervous but I am sure it will be a fun experience.

Yesterday's workout at track practice was fairly simple but I am still sore from Monday and Tuesday! I feel like my hips are tight and just wont stretch out.

My plan for todays workout is to actually get some miles in. I am going to hit the treadmill with my ipod and we will see how far I can go at an easy pace!

Tomorrow I will hit the track for a nice hard speed workout. The question is what exact workout should I do? I am getting kind of bored of the same old stuff that we do every week at practice. Does any one have a favorite interval/speed workout I can try??

Have a great weekend and Happy early Valentine's Day!

Good luck with your presentation - you'll do great!

Maybe some nice easy miles will help loosen up that hip for you.

Sorry, I don't run track so no suggestions on a workout.

Have a good Friday!

Hope your presentation goes well. Sounds like fun-- no matter how they act high schoolers usually think college students are sooooo cool, right? My favorite track workout is ladders b/c I get bored doing all of the same thing/same speed.

I get bored with the same workouts too, sometimes you have to mix it up. Im not familiar with many interval workouts, hope you find a good one!

Have a good friday!!

Good luck with your presentation! High schoolers are always fun. =)
As for speedwork, wish I could help! I've never done any, but my running partner and I are thinking of introducing some into our runs at some point in the near future...
