Notes

2 fartlek ladders. I ran with Peter and we got out farther than I can remember getting (finished the hard effort at the lightpole halfway between the Buckner overpass & NW Hwy). There was a big headwind on the way back. I was struggling to keep pushing on the way back, so started sitting behind him, and then he finally pulled away on the final 90" effort. It was hard to hear when running into that wind, but during the last 60" I heard Chuck say what sounded like "relax and think about form" and started to do that. I seemed to begin reeling peter in a little after that. I was disappointed to get dropped, but I'm feeling pretty encouraged about my running. this morning and last week's fartlek are the 2 fastest farlek efforts I can find in my log, and i'm not skewing it by running fast on the recoveries. having people running fast beside me is really helping me push hard.
