Track workout at DSU with the running club.
Today was super windy on the backstretch, but I guess the wind helped push me foward on the homestretch.
The workout was: 1600 warm up, 800 of stretches, jogging, & strides
800 - 3:38, 400 recovery
1600 - 7:12 400 recovery
800 - 3:26, 400 recovery
1600 - 7:09, 400 recovery
800 - 3:26, 400 recovery
Bleachers - 5x, then 1200 cooldown
I did a little better than last week. Actually my slowest interval was the first 800, and I was able to do the rest just a little faster and stay consistent. I am still not super fast, but I think this track work will help me a lot. This was a lot of fun, too. I met a girl on the track going about my pace and we ran the last 2 800s together and the second 1600. There was also an older guy that ran our 2nd mile repeat with us. It was cool - it felt like teamwork as we helped eachother out. This reminded me of my high school track days.
