Today we had a workout and it was the absolute worst weather for it. The workout was 400, 30 sec rest, 800, 100m jog and a 300. We would do two sets of those with about 4 minutes of recovery inbetween sets. It was hailing/snowing/raining so hard and the wind on the backstretch was brutal, so we came through the first 400 at 67. The 800 I did in 2:23, and the 300 in 48. In the four minutes of recovery I ran back to the school and got some gloves. The second set I really pushed the 400 and got a 65 which I figure would at least be a 62 in good conditions. 30 seconds rest is nothing and by the time we started the 8 it felt like we had never stopped running, and it was absolutely terrible. Mike and I ran 2:24, but it was the hardest 2;24 I will evr run. We did the last 300 and I ran 46. Afterwards we cooled down.
