June 20, 2012 Sprinting


  • 100m Sprints: 8
  • 60m Sprints: 5

Hottest day of the year so far, hit about 99.  I was sprinting around 5:30, it was about 103 on the track with the reflected heat.  Air felt like breathing soup or wet cement. I love these days; you really find out how much willpower you have. Plus it makes the next week feel easier if conditions are even vaguely better.  I hit 1100 meters here, new high for the year.  I brought two bottles of water, needed both.  Was drenched after the first two sprints.  Hard to describe how hard it was to run those 60s at the end; felt like I was drowning the air was so humid.  Went home and put bags of frozen peas on my knees...felt great.
