PM track workout:

4.5 mi. WU - run over to track, (36:22)

10x400m w/ 200m rec., (78,79,79,81,81,81,81,84,82,84)

4x200m w/ 200m rec, (39,38,42,41)

4.7 mi. super slow CD - run home (44:33)

This was tough today!  The 400s felt very hard after #4 which I think contributed to the last 3 slower reps, as well as the 200s at much slower pace than I would've liked.  I was struggling to jog home :)

Frankfort, KY, 8:30am:

Hilly course, 70 degrees, humid...

half mile warmup.  Was pleased with this run.  Forgot how hilly this course was.  Splits were indicative of the first mile all down hill, and the rest climbing back up that descent.

5:52, 6:13, 6:15, 6:17, 5:48 for last 0.88 mi. - my GPS showed that the distance was 4.88 mi.

0.79 cooldown

 

Lexington, KY, 11am:

Hilly course, 85 degrees, humid...

12 mi. w/ 2x2mi. MP (13:18, 13:28) - total time - 1:36:40
