Okay, so maybe this weekend is just an emulation run, but 2 hours with hills sounds pretty intense to us. We found out the "master plan" for our training: we have previously been focusing on building our base fitness, this month we are going to work on building speed, and next we move onto lots of hills (even more than our emulation run, apparently).
This week's track workout on Tuesday was hard. Although, Pam assures Sarah, not as hard as last week (even with Pam's wicked blisters on her heals). After our warm-up we did 400 fast followed by 400 easy, 800 fast followed by 400 easy, 1200 fast followed by 400 easy, and then another 800 fast followed by 1200 warm-down. Sarah says she takes after her little brother Aaron and likes the sprint-style track workouts. Pam says she'll take the long Saturday morning runs over track anytime.
Well, we should probably get back to drinking water to stay hydrated, trying various types of energy supplements (e.g., Gu, Power Gel), submitting our abstracts for an annual social psychology conference, and reading ridiculous amounts to study for generals (our test that is coming up in Sept.)!
Wish us luck on Saturday . . .
