Currently, I still plan on focusing in the 400/800 range(mainly 800). After cross season is over, you’ll definitely start seeing a lot more specific work towards that event range. Perhaps I will run a few 1500s but it all depends on where I’m needed.
I must say I am a little worried about all this mileage. I’ve talked to coach about it though and it seems to me that they do some speed work and A TON of elastic work going into the track season. My reactive strength + elasticity is miles behind my strength and I think I’ll fit perfectly into his program.

Good day. Pushed myself a little bit on the mileage. I’m not expecting big things out of this meet because this is the highest mileage week I have ever done AND the course is just ridiculous. Coach is planning on having us train through it, thus why we didn’t have an overly easy day today.
Played about 30 minutes of floor hockey tonight. I’m going to be feeling it tomorrow probably.
