The XC workouts begin today! Tuesday-Thursday baby! Yesterday I opened up my Jack Daniels book again, made my summer training program, and started on the club's season training program. I'm doing the 5K-10K training, but basically making all of my workout XC af. Hills, grass, unstable ground, you name it!

Today, I did 2 sets of (8x0.13 at R pace with 0.13m jog) and a 0.26 jog between sets (fuck the metric system, jk it was just easier with my GPS). The good ol basic first Jack Daniel workout. I ran it on a grassy, uneven straight away that curved into a small hill behind Adams High School. So, I wasn't super concerned about hitting exactly R pace, since I wasn't doing it on a track and didn't have the most accurate GPS in the world.

The workout felt fairly easy. On the second set, a dog randomly joined me and tried beating me up the hill. I won lol, but he was a good boy for trying. I managed to blast the finally rep, just to see what i had in me. Even after that, I definitely felt like I could've done another set by the end. But ya know, it's only the beginning. So overall I'm very pleased with the first workout of the season.
