mile time trial. 7:46.
I was going for 2 miles, but I've had allergy problems the last couple of days.
It was damp, cool, and windy. Normally good conditions, except for the wind.
But today it caused my throat to close up.
At first I thought it was just that my lungs weren't in shape yet,
but then realized what was happening and cut it short.
I kicked for the last 500 meters.
My throat got worse and not getting any air the last 100 meters was pretty painful.
Still, season bests for 400m, 800m and mile.
Despite missing 4 months my short times are on a par with previous years.
But I have no long times. Usually I'm at 10k or more by now.
I haven't gone beyond 5k yet because the old injury spots start aching
and I have been shutting down just to be safe.
