Interval Session

Last small workout before this weeks half marathon in STG. Did my usual 6X400 with 1X1 mile @ the end of the workout.

Did 4.20 mile warm. During the warm up my stomach felt like garbage, I ended up stopping 3 times to use the restroom, luckily I was in North Ogden so my parents house was useful.

After the warm up I did 6X400 and my first interval felt like crap. Legs were heavy, breathing was off and I thought I was going to suffer during the entire workout. But after the first one I ended nailing the workout and felt better as the session went on. Here are the splits:

6X400 with 400 meter jog

Splits-70.59; 65.57; 62.03(NEW 400 PR***); 67.00; 65.85; 64.37

Jogged 1 mile for cool

1X1 mile- split- 4:49.73. Mile goal is always supposed to be at goal half pace but ends up always way quicker. But I will take it. 

.70 jog back home

Nice work. You're in awesome shape right now! Saturday should be fun. See you in St. George!

Well another great workout. It's no longer surprising though; these are common occurrences now. That means you've reached a new level BV! Now go out and get what you've earned Saturday!
