nerves

What's with me? We're going to do a mile run test today and I'm already getting nervous. I'd like to beat my previous PR of 6:29. I think I'll aim for a 1:34 quarter mile pace which will result in a 6:16 mile. TIME TO SUFFER, but not for too long, really. Then we'll have our workout...

FUEL
8am - 3 eggs, coffee (forgot to eat the avocado!)
2pm - small carne asada burrito, no rice
3pm - almond butter, one slice whole wheat bread
9pm - chicken breast, grass fed sage breakfast sausage, broccoli, spinach, artichoke hearts, little sweet potato, 1/2 avocado, olive oil, spices. GOOD POST WORKOUT RECOVERY MEAL

BURNING (7:30pm)
-Mile run test ---> 6:14 !! (new PR). I can't believe I know what a 1:34 400 pace feels like. I'm pretty sure on track, during a dry day I could get a :58 400m and 6:00 mile, though not in the same effort.
-pretty easy deadlifting 5x5 @ 185#
-stick stirs with the 45# bar and 25# plate. CORE BUSTER.
