workouts

longwinded and dull. read at your own risk.

ran intervals this morning. nothing spectacular: 3min warmup (around 10-11 kph) then 8 reps of 1:30 14kph, 1:30 9kph for a tad more than 5k in 27 min. i was tired by the end, but not that tired, which means i coulda/shoulda done the runs on 15kph. it seems i am in awful cardio shape, but my legs are holding up really well. i never once hit lactic acid, but i was gasping for air...it felt like my lungs couldn't get enough o2...which i guess isn't that surprising given i've just gotten over bronchitis and i'm still coughing up random bits of phlegm (mmm...yum!).

disc last night was fun even tho we lost by 2 or 3 pts, which is not bad considering we had 6-7 guys and 3-2 girls to their 5 or so subs. i think we might've won had we played 5-2 the entire game like we were supposed to. instead linda made some wuss call that we should play 6-1 so their girls wouldn't have to be savage (she was tired of covering me--her words, not mine). i caught some pretty sketchy things (almost no spin, but also no wind), and threw some really bad stuff...paulie came down with one of my blades in the endzone, but i had a ton of turns (causing the first break right off the pull, putting up a stall 9 turnover, etc etc). BUT i also had 2 layouts--1 for the catch, but it was more of a going for a low disc, hitting the ground on my back to protect the catch than a full extension. the second was a full extension on a zippy deep throw, i had it in my hand but couldn't hold on when i hit the groud (hand first, which is a bad policy if you want to not drop the disc in that hand). i'm excited b/c i rarely layout, especially not at league. now i just have to get my throwing confidence back.
