cross to track

cross country season has ended, so the focus has shifted to track. different distances and different running surfaces, ill still be running though... i want to focus on either the 800, mile, or 5000. coach gave us times we had to hit to compete in meets in each event. they are 1:59, 4:30, and 16:30 respectively. although i've never hit those times. i should be able to when i attemp it. they aren't too difficult, but it will take a little work...
we'll start out with indoor track, traveling to baton rouge, carbondale ill, and a few other places. indoor meets are different, but fun. the tight track is the main downside, but i love how the races feel more action packed.
i have thought about some goals to hit for the season, however i may adjust them depending on what event i train for and where my times are at the beginning of the season. i'd like to get down to a 1:56 or 1:57 800, a 4:10 1500 and a 15:45 5k. those times would take alot of work, but totally be worth it. ill get in some training between now and through christmas break, and when season starts, ill be ready.
