from The Hungry Runner Girl I am going to get all crazy and start out my afternoon post by talking about lunch instead of my workout. I know… I’m really getting creative today;) My sister wanted to go to Chick-fil-a for her bday lunch because she loves their salads. She also wanted to go there for the playplace for the little girls. I don’t know how I got so lucky to get these two. And our other dates: We sat at that booth for 2 hours talking while the girls played. We had a lot to catch up on. I brought my sister’s favorite cupcake in the world. Chocolate base with coconut frosting. Today was a speed day. I didn’t have a babysitter and so it was another treadmill day… I do prefer to do Yasso 800s at the track so I will plan better for next time. This is how I keep track of the workout when I am on the treadmill: During each running recovery (R) I type in the previous interval time on my phone. Each interval is .5 miles long (or 800 meters) and I averaged 3 minutes and 6 seconds for the 10 intervals. Most of the recoveries in between intervals were .5 miles also but I was running out of time and had to shorten a few of them. After the third interval, I jumped off to change Brooke’s diaper hence the Diaper Recovery instead of a jogging recovery. I’m excited about how I felt during these ones because this is just the beginning of Boston training. Plenty of time for improvements! My favorite song to listen to during the intervals… I like angry music when I am trying to run fast and this one fits the bill: Throw Back Wednesday to a picture my good friend posted on Facebook today of us: Ever tried Yasso 800s? What are your thoughts on them? Favorite cupcake flavors? Where would you choose to go for your bday lunch? Anyone else like angry music when they are trying to run fast or am I just an angry person;)
