Did a lunch workout at Cottonwood High.
Warmed up for 1.25 miles
Workout was 200-400-600-800-600-400-200 @ goal 5k pace(5:09) for a 16 minute 5k.
Rest was 100-200-300-300-200-100 jog at about 8:30 pace in-between reps.
Times were 35-75-1:54-2:34-1:55-76-36. This was a very tough workout for me but good to get some faster running in with minimal rest. It showed me I have a ways to go to break 16 minutes. The second 600 rep was brutal but I felt oddly better on the following 400. Next week I will add another 800m and 1k rep to make it an actual 5k of hard running.
Jogged stairs for 10 minutes afterwards then cooled down another 1.5 miles
