something you want to do, there isn't any reason you can't do it.

There was volleyball game and shot put training when we came,
so after killing time doing other exercises we eventually ran
on the track. Szu-En was running in the inner lane, Selahi
on the outer lane (except last 400, and mile)

First training of the year! (Numbers in paranthesis show
number of heart beats in 15 seconds following that run)
First three 200m were scheduled to be 60, 50 and 40 seconds long.
4th 200m was to be run at 100%, Szu-En did a perfect run, but got injured,
so did not run later on. First 400m was also to be run at 100%, but Selahi
ran out of fuel before half of it.

This was the 4th training indoors (previously Dec 6: 8x800,
Dec 13: 8x800, Dec 20: 800 8x400 1600). Akos came running from home,
regardless of the freezing weather outside, but it didn't take him
long to warm up. Szu-En ran fast 200's, and a very fast 400. He also did a clean highjump. See also chart by Akos Horvath.
