Today I got in a speed workout that felt pretty good. I did a mile warmup then 8 rounds of 1 minute on, 1 minute off, then a mile cooldown back to the car. It was a short workout (38 min.), but I was able to keep my "minute on" on for all eight rounds (in the past I have generally pooped out at the end and haven't been able to kick it for the latter rounds). The cool thing was watching my heart rate drop from 170 during my fast minute, to the low 1-teens during my minute off. My legs felt a little jello like at the beginning, but I should be getting my running legs back soon.
I ate well today: small bowl of cereal, turkey wrap (not great, but I suppose it could have been worse), and chili and beans for dinner. NO SNACKS today!! I did have a beer watching the Redskins play like sheet.
Runners World mag or online is a great resource, give it a shot.
