5k workout. Same as last Wednesday, 4x(8-4-2) w/ 60s, 30s, 30s rests. Pete and Casey met up with me, it was nice to have a couple buddies for a change. Reps went as follows:
2:26.5, 72, 35
2:25.1, 72, 35
2:23.7, 71.8, 35
2:22.0, 69.0, 34
Overall average of 71.5 per quarter. I felt really smooth and controlled. My fitness is definitely coming around, I never reached a point where I was in pain. It was a hard effort, but never uncomfortable, and maybe ought to start pushing a little harder.
The weather was beautiful again; sunny, warm(ish), and no wind. I ran in my old pair of Eldoret's and realized that I really love that shoe.
Cooled down with Pete and Casey and enjoyed the sun. I'm registered for the Willamette Invite now, so I'm pretty eager to race my first 5k of the season. I think the training is really starting to come together.
