Today we did 5x800s with a 400 at the end. I guess I forgot that we were doing a 400 at the end but I still pulled off a 70. First we warmed up 2 miles, then we stretched out and did some striders. My 800s went like this: 2:43, 2:37, 2:30, 2:36, 2:20, and my 400 was a 70. So it was a good workout, the first 4 800 repeats felt pretty easy and good, and for the last one my goal was to run with Kramer (He was hitting 2:20s, and he did a 6th 800 10 seconds faster after the last 800 we did.) I achieved my goal, and I am happy about that and I gave it my all so that was also good. The 400 went pretty well, I think I hit a decent time, I think closing a 5k with a 70 probably isn't too bad. In between the 800s I walk/jogged 400 meters, I jogged about half of it. Overall I am pleased with how I did on this workout, I feel like I didn't hold anthing back on that last 800 and 400. Then we cooled down for 15 minutes, I'd say about 1.5 miles. I will do some core today as well. Tomarrow is a 2 a day so I'm happy about that. I'm very excited for Grass Relays at American Fork this weekend, I want to see what I can do and what my team can do.
