Did a track workout with the Trigators.  7:56/mi for the first 2.25 mi

1/2 mi straights and turns

6 x 800m ( 400 hard, 100 easy, 100 sprint, 200 easy) 1 min rest in between

400's ( 90 sec, 90, 90, 90, 89, 86) didn't keep track of the rest but the 100's were all out

3 mi on my own at close to marathon race pace 8:23/mi

I felt good today and the weather was nice around 70.  It did get very dark though in some places I couldn't see anything running around campus.  It doesn't help that I just finished reading the James Patterson book Kiss the Girls about two serial killers capturing women about my age on college campuses.

Great job. Sounds like a nice workout.
