Sprint workout today!  My first track workout in over a week, and I was a little nervous how my hips and legs would hold up.  But everything's fine.

Jog 800m, then 20 minutes dynamic and plyo stretches (high knees, butt kicks, Mach A and B skips, grapevines).  Then 5 x 40m strides of increasing intensity, hitting top speed on the last one.  Then the workout:

5 x 200m @ 85-90% top speed (34-45 secs), 200m rest.  Legs were fried by the last one, which was only 38 secs, so I focused on form.

jog 800m cooldown.

Guess that means she didn't qualify for Kona, which is partially blowing up in flames.

Grrrr.  Looks like I've strained my achilles.

I wish I'd get a little bit more warning, I was just putzing along at a slow pace on an easy effort run, mile and a half in and boom!
