Track was anti climactic for me today. I have heard all of this "circuit drill" hype and I totally pictured myself throwing myself into a GI Jane situation. (yes, I pictured myself with the ripped body and all of course) I woke up early, discovered I was out of coffee (this is never good, but worse at 5:15am) so I had to improvise and drink some black tea. Um, not at all the same. Grubbed on some plain oatmeal while driving to Clark Kerr track in Berkeley. Weather was coldish, foggy, and as I schlepped up the big hill to get to the track, I saw an absolutely beautiful view of the bay, the city and the early morning lights all tucked into a fuzzy blanket of white fog. Nice - but I am still there at 6am to run in circles.
Anyway, we ended up viewing Coach Al demonstrate the wrong ways and then the correct way to run. Did our cheer of course, agreed to do the damn thing, and then we were told to run 2 laps. After those laps, we stretched. He told us to run 13 minutes and count our laps. He said to focus on form, speed was promised to come later. Um, we'll see. I ran and ended up doing 5 laps in 13:30. And that was it, no Commando screaming give me 50 or anything. Oh well, maybe next time.
