Kingdom Come-Coldplay
Rest day today w/ a race on tap tomorrow,the obligatory bowl of Linguine and Clams w/ Texas Toast as my pre race meal,as the saying goes"if it ain't broke,don't fix it"
Hopefully the weather will improve for tomorrow,not a lot of fun running 12.5 laps in the rain but according to the forecast it should be dry if nothing else.
So yes,it's a 5,000m tomorrow and chances are it will remain 5,000m for the summer,after my indoor season I was less than thrilled w/ my 2 400m races and 2 800m races,my pair of miles were ok,but clearly my best 2 races were over the longer distances,9.08 for 3,000m and 15.47 for 5,000m so rather than keep ploughing away at 800m when I've yet to turn in a decent performance I figured go after it at 5,000m where I feel I can improve upon the marks I set last season.
My 5,000m Odyssey kicked off at the very same Upenn Invitational last year on April 3rd when I clocked a 15.57.7. and culminated in a 15.36.8. at Nationals,obviously anything below 15.57.7. tomorrow would be a step in the right direction w/ 14 more weeks to go till Worlds and 5 more races scheduled,but b4 I can concern myself w/ them and my training I need to execute my race plan tomorrow and then go from there,the clock is ticking.
