Met up with Josh and ran a Big Workout. We warmed up 3 miles to Sunnyside/Guardsman and then began a 2 mile Tinman tempo run, up 9th South and then south on 21st East. I missed the split on the first mile (prob 6:10 or so with the little climb on 9th So.) and 5:55 for mile 2. Then some rest to 21st South, followed by 4 x 1 mile with ~3 minutes rest between. My watch had my splits as 5:47; 5:44; 5:38; 5:44. Josh was several seconds faster on a couple of these. By the start of the third mile interval we were at 3300 South. We had to symmetricize some of the recovery portions to optimize terrain gradient. That's right, we symmetricized. Then we had a long, long cool down home. |
