Track Workout 6 / Team Name

52 degrees at 5:45 this morning, we are there ready to run.

Jog to the track, then 4 lap warmup.
1200 1:43, 1:44, 1:40 @5K pace
400 rest interval
800 1:39, 1:36 @5K pace
400 rest interval
400 1:20 FAST
200 rest interval
200 :36 FAST
400 rest interval

1200 1:41, 1:46, 1:45 @5K pace
400 rest interval
800 1:37, 1:45 @5K pace
we didn't do the rest interval because of time.
400 1:20 FAST

I got concerned about the time and didn't do the 200. Everything felt good. I still feel as if I'm trying to figure out how hard I can push without blowing up. I find it interesting that both 400's were 1:20.

Our Team Name will be "Tri Hard, Play Harder!"
THPH: pronounced like the Bronx Cheer.
Celebrated with cookies that Todd brought for post workout. Wahoo!

Bronx reference way over my head. I have no idea what that means.

You spelled "Try" wrong by the way.

"You spelled "Try" wrong by the way."

Guess we are stuck with it. We already ordered 1000 T-shirts and Hats with that on there.

Bronx Cheer = raspberry. stick tougue out/ blow.

Googled it. Gave me the reference for the Bronx Cheer.

I get it, . . . NOW! It is a noise rather than a real cheer.

Very Nice by the way. All the "Tri" sayings can become applicable
:

Keep Triing
Triing is part of life
Tri until you get it right
Tri a bite of my sandwich
Tri not to get pulled over for speeding.
Tri, Tri Again
Tri to do it right this time
Do YOU EVER TRI?
I Tri! or I Tri'd!
Tri like a Girl (Boy), so Tri to keep up.
You don't have to win, you just have to Tri.

SB is killing the track workouts, we may have to change his name to running bear.

I think you need to sign up for a regular 5k to see wht you can do.

J.P. Richardson (aka The Big Bopper) sang that "Running Bear" loves Little White Dove. So, it looks like Genine's name is White Dove, but after the awesome Descent she had this weekend, Little White Falcon would be more appropriate.

"we may have to change his name to running bear."

Maybe I'll be lucky enough to improve everything for next year and be deserving of the name "sbr bear".

I'm game for doing a 5K, that's much further than 200-400m tho'. I'll have to work on figuring out how to race that.

Thanks for all the support everyone.

Oh, The Little White Falcon comment sent my brain down some odd tangents.

Russel from Fat Albert, "Rudy, your like school in the summertime - NO Class!"

Of course Rudy came back with "you are like an empty garbage can - no trash!"

"HEY-HEY-HEY!"
