First Track Workout

Today, I just planned to run some laps and loosen up my legs, but once I got started with the warmup and drills, I kept on going.  My body totally held up for me, I can't believe how well I ran after so much time off.

We did a total of 3.5 miles in the pouring down rain!

warmup run
quick feet drills
2 laps to warm up
3 laps at 70% followed by 1 min break
2 laps at 80% followed by 45 sec break
1 lap at 90% followed by 30 sec break
then reverse
1 lap at 90% followed by 30 sec break
2 laps at 80% followed by 45 sec break
3 laps at 70% followed by 1 min break

I got a lot of atta-girl, good-job girl, looking good girl, lots of positive feedback - with a few reminders to let my shoulders drop.  My coach seemed pleased with my first workout.  I did not know I had it in me to get through this, so happy.
