Cooler, overcast day was good for a track work out. I practiced some starts using my blocks, and filmed myself in slo-mo to check my technique.
Then I ran 5 X 100. I felt ok for the first 4, but started to get tired and lose technique at the end of #5 Self-timed laps (standing start) were

it was hot (32) and humid, and the wind was strong out of the south. I planned to do more speed work tonight, but legs were tired and I felt a twinge or two in left hamstring and calf. So I decided to cut it short.

Went over to west campus to check out my courses for next weekend. First really hot day. I got warn out moving around in the open and paved areas.
Then I did my sprint drills. Stayed in the shade of the trees, but it was still tough. I did three repeats of 1 minute runs. I managed to do this by taking long breaks in between (9 minutes, not counted in my total time). what should I do next time: increase the number of reps (with same long rest period) or keep three reps (but decrease the rest time)?
