Flat in flats

Sat, 5/7/11- The initial plan was to do a workout of 8x400: #s 1,3,4,7 @ 70 and #s 2,5,8 @ 63. This would be my first speed workout since before Penn Relays. After warming up and stretching, I spiked up and began. The first 200 of the first 400 was well ahead of pace (I reached the 200 in :31), but then my toes and foot started bothering me. So, I wound up running a much slower second 200. The second 200 was in 37-38. I then put on my flats and decided I would just make do. The rest of the 400s were: 72,70,71,71...with a 400 jog in-between (3:00). I then took a 4-minute break to prepare for faster 400s. My next two were 65 and 66. Whimping out, I decided to do 6 200s in lieu of the 3 400s I had left. My 200s were 29,30,30 and 27 (thanks to my feet being able to take spikes). I just hope I can get myself together soon. I need some work...and fast!
