Comments:
started my work-out with the sprinters by doing 3x100. got a bit of good speed work in.

Then did the rest as a long-distance runner...there were absolutely no girls but emma, so naturally, i ran with her.
First we did a couple 400s. My first one was really strong, the second one wasn't bad but my heart wasn't in it.

Then hills...don don donnnn... but they actually weren't that bad. i guess since i just didn't wanna do them so badly and told myself my legs were dead, my first two were sooo slow, just barely dragging myself up. and of course those first two were the ones anthony just so happened to see! the 2nd two i was ready for. my heart was in it. that simple. the first of the last two better than the last one, but both very strong.
Finally, we did a 300, which i again did very strongly. i didn't feel like doing it, and i got cramps on both sides, but i wasn't scared out of my mind that'd i'd be slow (like i used to be). i got out strong, and began lifting as soon as a got into the turn so i was ready to spring the last 100 with good form 'n all. but i gave up in the last few meters. i'll have to work on that.
but its exciting. i'm finding myself again with out scaring myself away - if that makes any sense? anyway, i'm excited for what the season might bring - but not overly excited (still got the rest of the season for that).

oh and the cherry blossoms are just beginning to bloom...i hope we run thru the neighborhood this week!
