By this time tomorrow, I will be (hypothetically) all packed up and ready to head back to school the following morning (Wednesday). I finished my last day of work today, worked from 8am to 4pm, and it went surprisingly quickly. I spent the first fifteen minutes of my shift waiting for a manager to open the front door because it was locked (and I couldn't figure out how to use the phone as an intercom hahaha). After I was let into the building, I was able to get to work knowing that I would have to deal with hundreds of shoe boxes (We got in a massive truck this morning).
For the month and a half I worked at Dick's, I can say that I thoroughly enjoyed it. Now i'll be able to put another thing on my resume, Running Specialist haha.
Just a few moments ago, I got back from a short run. Just five miles, but I decided to mix things up a little bit. I was going to just make it a normal run, but I thought, "What the hell.. let's run fast today?" My first mile (7:04) felt super smooth, but my ankle was bothering me a little bit, like my shoes were a little too loose. I am due for a new pair of trainers anyway, so I think I'll head to Dick's one last time to grab some new trainers.
I picked it up my second mile (6:47) and then after I heard that split, I turned on the jets (so to speak). I started running hard for the next 1k, and ended up running a 3:35 (5:48 mile pace). I then settled back into my easy pace for the duration of the run. It was nice knowing that I did still have some speed, although I am wondering if i'll be able to hold that pace for our time trial. Because 1k is a little different than 6.4 kilometers.
