Recoveries were 400s except after the 1200s and 1600, those recoveries were 800. 7:45 pace on the way up, 7:30 pace on the way back down. Fun workout. Didn't feel strained and left some in the tank. Now if i race on the 4th i should be ready. 6:36

Nicely done B-dase! You're getting stronger every week.

Awesome workout Brandon! I think the conservative start and huge negative split proves that you are doing things right and are in really good shape.

Come down to Payson and join in on Rachelles 10k tempo race if you decide not to jump in on the 4th race madness!

Dude that's a very nice beast ladder there. Negative splits too. Really cool to see your progression since Boston. Excited to see you pr the next few months. Great work.
