My run was okay today. I went the the track with intention for running 3x800 in 3:40
I warmed up 1mile - did dynamic stretches - and 2 strides
I ran in my 800 meter race track spikes.
- I than proceeded to my 800's with a 400 meter jog in between each one. My 800s were all run in 3:20's. I felt great and than questioned myself. " Am I supposed to do 3 or 4?" Well I should have stuck with 3 but I did 4. Even though I still finished under time I was not feeling the last one and should have stopped in the middle.
I cooled down with 4 laps barefoot on the grass and a 20 min. stretch session at home.
First of all my stride never felt smooth and my left foot does not want do anything but heel strike. Needless to say my right calve is extremely sore while my left leg is slightly sore. I feel bad for my right leg it is doing all the work.
I also know I have a long way to go in changing my running form. It looks easy on video but it takes time to retrain your body from 17 years of bad habits.
