Oh It's On Like Donkey Kong Now

First of all mad love,big ups,and much respect to Nick D for the above photo of the victorious GPTC 4x4 Millrose relay teams,from left to right,me,Scott Landis,Dave Brown,Daryl Johnson,Ray Parker,Nick Berra,Nick Damalas,Bob McGinty.
Moving on,I got good news today,I'm good for a ride to but more importantly from The Armory next Thursday which means my assault on Chuck's club record for the 2 Miles of 10.05.8. is a go now.
W/out a ride home afterwards would make it"squeeky bum"time trying to get from 168th St and The Armory to 34th St and Penn Station in time for the final connecting train back to Philly at 10.38pm and w/out this 2 miler I'm in no position to see if the 3,000m at Indoor Nationals is doable or not.

I have to say tonite's repeats were my best so far this year,I realize that's not saying alot so early on in the year period plus given it was Jan 12th b4 I could get back onto a track but of the eight repeats I've done this was the most satisfying
#1,1000m 1.22-1.25-39-3.26.18.A modest start to the evening,shades of my Jan 14th opener 1.19-1.27-40-3.26.54.,from there I went:3.26.93.-3.21.10.-3.21.83.-3.17.08.....and there the similarity ends!
#2,1,000m 1.20-1.19-39-3.18.06.Where I'd began flat footed again this time out I got up on my toes and what do you know an 8 second improvement,on my two previous 5x1,000s I closed in 3.17s,I was already closing in on my fastest 1,000m split of the year.
#3,1,000m 1.18-1.19-38-3.15.82.Yes,after three weeks going on four of speed work and base work I'm starting to see it come together....and it's only the first week of Febuary!
#4,1,000m 1.18-1.19-36-3.13.81.Unreal,each repeat had gotten faster but it was gonna be a bastard trying to top 3.13.but hell I'm always up for a challenge....
#5,1,000m 1.20-1.21-34-3.15.85.I knew when I came through in 1.20 that topping 3.13 was a tall order but I wasn't gonna roll over and play dead,I think the closing 200m in 34 seconds proves that....what I won't give for a final lap of 34 seconds next Thursday!!!

W/ the weather potentially going garrity over the weekend who knows what's in store over the next few days or how it'll effect the beginning of next week,we'll have to see how it plays out.
