Monday Workout in Hixon

The boys of semi-speed, semi-endurance rolled up to Hixon forest today for a little fartlek-like jaunt through the lower section of the trees. Four repeats of around 65 seconds up the hill on the 600 meter loop were good enough to call it a day. Two mile warm up, two mile cool down and a few 150 meter strides back at the track made our workout pleasant and profitable.

We finished the day with a 15second pickup 30second rest, 30/60, 45/1:30, 1/2, 45/1:30, 30/1, 15/30.

The temperature was 70degrees fahrenheit or over and very sunny.

We discussed Bold's comeback

Sunday Runday

Got together today for a little jaunt through Hixon. About 5.5 miles at a slow pace. The weather is spectacular and we're all feeling a little fatigued from the race, but it was good to get out and move the legs.

UNI Meet

Pretty decent start for the MD crew and for the team as a whole. TB ran a good race and finished around 2:00.8, Otto and Mouse ran an identical 1:55.9, and Hummer ran a 1:54.9. Then Otto, Mouse, and Hummer ran a 4x400. Mouse and Hummer ran side by side for much of the race and both finished with splits of 50.1, Otto kept it real with a 52.6.

Thursday Hansen Fartlek

A warm, rainy thursday. Jonathan finished his week of exams and ran alone at 6pm. It rained for awhile during the fartlek but was otherwise beautiful running weather. A fantastic kick from Smiths to West Ave.

I believe Hummer, Mouse, and Shop ran their own Hansen Fartlek at 3pm today. Read the comments!

We had the wind at our backs so it really wasn't that bad and it was a B-L-A-S-T... literally! We got about 9 miles total today with 5 miles of it on the track (including recovery laps). Looking forward to a shorter workout tomorrow and a beautiful day. Congratulations to Tom Bauer contributing by executing the last 300 in record time.

Finishing the 40

A three mile easy Sunday run today. The goal was to be well rested and hope that the short run would feel superfluous. Seems like that worked. Weekly mileage: 40!

Long Saturday

At 10:30 a.m. TB, Mouse, Hummer, and Otto got together for a 9 mile run. Everyone was a little weary and the pace was nice and slow for the majority of the run. We recounted TB's night and conjectured as to what Boldt had been doing.
