I ran into Sasha today, who wa kind enough to run 6x1000 with me, despite being 13 miles into an already eventful run. It helped a ton to have him run with me, I finally kept pace through the whole workout. Plus he helped me average a faster pace than ever. The trail was pretty icy in places, but not horrible. The slower reps were slightly uphill, and the faster ones on the downhill.
1 - 3:31 (apr. 30 seconds rest between reps)
2 - 3:24
3 - 3:33
4 - 3:23
5 - 3:32
6 - 3:23-3:24
So pretty consistent times - the last two were pretty painful. I'm pleased with the workout, but I still realize how far I have to go to hit my goal times. |
