too much headwind

3/7/11--i am about to do some easy miles. 5 miles

-------------------

3/6/11--penn oaks and back. Drizzling. 24:05 en route there; 23:10 en route back home. 6.6 miles Total mileage for week ending today-->34.8 miles

3/5/11--special day. still worked out. went to Westtown School in afternoon to do 8 400s. got there. after warming up and whatnot, i did the first 400 in :70 as planned. jogged 400. then went to do next 400 in :63, but the wind, though it was warmer, was just a bear. i crossed the 200 in :32 and stopped at the 250 meter mark in :40. then decided to modify my plans. felt like a cheater. anyway, i decided to do 300 in :48, followed by a 200 meter jog in 1:30, followed by a 100 stride in :16, followed by a 200 jog. I did 8 of these. Counting the initial 400 and 250 runs, this all made for a good workout. 6.5 miles

for whatever reason i get defeated by too much headwind, particular when I am trying to do a speed workout. i need to learn to fight through it.

3/4/11--took off.
