I did Orange Street Intervals this morning and felt better than the last time I did them, on Wednesday, but completed the loop a mere three seconds faster, in 34:46. As before, I used the first half mile as a warmup and the last to warm down, and alternated one-minute runs with one-minute walks between. My overall splits were 11:49, 11:13, and 11:44. My interval splits with 11:10 and 11:01.
In retrospect I believe it will be a while before I do these more than once a week. They're hard.
My idiocy needs no further verification, but here's some anyway: Two days after I feared I had permanently damaged my lower back, I got up out of bed and ran intervals. Within an hour, my back was killing me.
It has, however, calmed down a lot and feels much better than it did several hours ago, and several hours after I hurt it Sunday. I'm not worried. Internet sources said the worst thing to do is spend the day in a chair or bed, and that seems about right. I walked two miles on the Levy Trail this evening in 34:46, and feel fine. I might relax a bit for a few days.
The Democrat Football League Green Bay Packers were defeated by the Complete Sellouts, 131.70-92.83, and dropped to fourth place at 4-2 with seven regular-season games to play. The top six teams make the playoffs.
