I woke up really late this morning on account of my watching Anne of Green Gables until 1:00 AM with my family... uughhh smh @ myself. Anyway, It was, yet again, already hot and my calves were so tight my achilles tendons could almost function like guitar strings. I warmed up the 3.25 miles to the high school and got in a good long stretch on the track. I did a 600, 500, 400, and 300 at goal mile pace followed by a 300, 200, and 100 at goal 800 pace. my times were 1:47, 1:29, 1:09, 50, 47, 32, and 14. all of these were a lot slower than I was hoping for, especially since the workout was so short, but it was really hard to stay on pace all by myself. Add my fatigue and lack of motivation to that and I suppose it wasn't too bad. After the workout I just ran back, coming in at just over 8 miles.
Fun fact of the day: Mansa Musa (some african emperor dude in like 1200-1300 AD) was the richest man to have ever lived and could have literally purchased most countries in the world today with his estimated 400+ billion dollars. I suppose that's slightly more money than I currently have in my wallet.
