icy hot has no place!

Wed, 3/13/24-

My intention was to do something I did on about this day in 2014: 6x600 with a 3' rest, starting at 2:06 and dropping 3 seconds (or 1 sec/200m) for each successive 600: 2:03, 2:00, 1:57, 1:54, and 1:51. Back in 2014, I was on a treadmill (going from about 2:00 down to about 1:45); today I was outside. 

I felt flat today, in addition to a tendon in my left hamstring nagging me. After a bland start, I found that I needed a little icy hot. I applied it and realized a few minutes later that I must've grazed an area of the body icy hot has no place! Eventually, it became a bit unbearable, as I struggled with the tendon and motivation issues. What a confluence of nuisances. 

I managed: 2:06, 2:03, then shifted to 500s in 1:38, 1:36, 1:34. No sixth effort.
