Track day. 4x200m, 4x400m, 4x200m. Roughly 2:1 rest on time.

First set: 36-37

400 set: 74-76

Last set: 37, 35, 35, 34

Achilles is acting up a little. I was a little timid, this being my first full set on the track. I think I can ratchet up the pace just a touch, but it's also clear I still have a long way to go.

5 x mile  @ threshold. 

5:52, 5:50, 5:48, 5:50, 5:47

Added 4 x strides (17s) as hard as I could. Right hip was complaining pretty good by that point, so it was tough. Still doing lots of PT.
