And wow-I can imagine how terrible that must have felt! It also amazes me the places we can manage to whip ourselves! How is it possible to even whip a hand or stomach? Haha.

I hate the longer repeats! For some reason they are so much mentally harder for me, but maybe if I actually did them regularly it would be better!

Eww, I hate speed work, but when I have to do it, I keep it a mix between 800s, 400s, and 200s, and tempo runs. Honestly, 800s and 1-mile repeats are much more comfortable for me than 400s and 200s, so I tend to do those more. I do need someone to kick me in the butt to do speed work, though.

Do you do 1-mile or 1.5-mile tempo runs? Or 2-3 mile tempo run?

I’ve recently been able to start jump roping again since my stress fracture has healed. Monday we had double unders and for about half the workout I was only able to get 2-3 at a time. Then something clicked and I was able to knock out around 8-10 before I messed up again! But whipping yourself is the worst. One time it took the breath out of my stomach and I had to kneel over since I whipped myself so hard haha
