6x400

     After playing hours of World of Warcraft on my Monk, I decided to get off my butt and finally work out. I jumped into my Toyota Tacoma named Six or Caprica (from Battle Star Galatica, if you havent seen that show, put it on while you on the trainer); I headed to my secret training spot, a gym in my grandmothers retirement community.

     What isnt included in this picture is the 25M pool they have in the same building, this gym is free for me because my grandmother lives there, and the best part. NO ONE is ever there, its always wide open! Also the another great bonus is that my grandmother gets me Dairy Queen after every workout, truly makes the workouts that much sweeter knowing that Im working for DQ! Its the day by day wins which make the battle worth fighting. 
     Today I ran on the treadmill doing go fast work. My work out was 6x400 at 6:12 pace with a 1:1 work to rest ratio. I have never been a fast runner and am currently trying to work on it. My PR for a 10K in a Triathlon is 58:08... that's not very good, especially since my 5k PR is 20:36. The goal is to break a 50min 10K in a Olympic Distance this year, and a 1:45 half marathon at the 70.3 distance. Tonight I will be drinking Dogfish Head 60min headed into tomorrows rest day while leveling my Monk in World of Warcraft.

P.S. Watch Battle Star Galatica on the trainer using Netflix! (this will be called The Flix in future posts)
