Gearing Up for the 5000m

I went to the track on the weekend for a time trial to see what kind of joggling shape I'm in for the 5000m world record attempt. It turns out that I have a lot of work to do in the next few weeks. I joggled 2 x 1600m in 5:20 each and then joggled an 800 in 2:40. It was much harder than I expected, which could have something to do with the fact that I haven't been training very much lately. Let's see if I can get fit in time for the big race on August 29.

Toggling into joggling mode

Training has begun. I joggled home from work yesterday. It was oppressively hot and humid, but I made it in good time. I got a few cheers along the way and heard one woman tell her friend that I'm trying to break a world record. Maybe she read my blog?
