sprint drills (stretch) 10:00 [0]
A local running store is putting on a track meet in July. And leading up to it, they are offering a training series. I was very excited about both of these. And then they announced this week that the training would focus on 400m to 3200m. Bummer!
But I decided to sign up anyway, be sociable, get some tips. Tonight was the first session. About a dozen folks, of all ages, were there. Saw Mean Gene taking pictures at the start. As Spike mentioned on his log, we got bouts of rain. And hail. Which made it interesting. And stretched it out, since we stood under the bleachers for a few minutes when the hail was at it's worst.
Our trainer talked about overstriding and encouraged us to increase our cadence. I did the 400m drills, but low cadence is not an issue for me. It seems to be the only thing I do right (I'm between 200-220 when I race 100m). Didn't get any data tonight. My Garmin said low battery, then stopped. When I got home and put it on the charger, it said 80% charged. Guess it didn't like the rain.
