Awesome, VQ is starting up track workouts on Thursday mornings. I love track workouts! Personally, I would rather run a hard short set of sprints than do a long slow run, but that’s just me. Anyways, I’m excited to start doing speed work again to see if I can recover some of my speed from last year. My fastest run times were actually two years ago, so hopefully I can get back to those levels. The only downside is that that the workouts are at 6:00 AM. Ouch!
I did a little bit of indoor track work this winter at a track inside of a Depaul University athletic facility, but stopped doing that after a few weeks. The problem there was that the track was a 1/8 mile track, and the turns were so sharp that it was hurting my inside leg a lot. My IT band on my inner leg started to really scream at me during and after those track workouts so ultimately I decided it wasn't worth it and put the speed work on hiatus. But now that’s it nice outside we can head out to a larger outdoor track and really put some speed down!
