One is the (quietest) number

One lonely pax showed up for Hustle this chilly morning. YHC had planned on abandoning ship and joining the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles if no one showed up. But,  feeling the need to incorporate legitimate sprint work and speed development into the routine, YHC gutted it out alone.

Here’s what I did:

  • 800m warm-up run at recovery pace
  • Hill Sprints on concrete monster – try to be fully recovered before each sprint.
    • Sprint 25m and run 75m to top. Walk/jog to bottom.
    • Repeato x 3
    • Sprint 50m and run 50m to top. Walk/jog to bottom.
    • Repeato x 3
    • Sprint 75m and run 25m to top. Walk/jog to bottom.
    • Repeato x 3
    • Sprint 50m and run 50m to top. Walk/jog to bottom.
    • Repeato x 3
    • Sprint 25m and run 75m to top. Walk/jog to bottom.
    • Repeato x 3
  • Mosey down to track. Sprint straights and walk/jog curves. Try to be fully recovered before each sprint.
  • 800m cool-down run at recovery pace.

Even with YHC present, there was not a lot of #Mumblechatter this morning. Probably a good thing anyway. Somtimes the silence is necessary to properly sort out thoughts and recharge the mind to accelerate into the day. Grateful it was a Monday so that my week started off with fresh energy!
