Speedwork with the Black Sheep, starting at the Rose Garden at Sugarhouse Park. We ran a loop around the park and then to the Highland track.

Part A: 1 x 800m/accelerating strides on the straightaways, easy on the curves.

Part B: 8 x 800m with 400m jog recovery between each. My goal was to hold 2:40 pace throughout, but it took a few to get me there. Here were the times:

1. 2:49

2. 2:45

3: 2:37

4. 2:40

5. 2:39

6. 2:41

7. 2:40

8. 2:40

Part C: Finally, we ran 1 x 1 mile. The goal was to run sub 5:40, and Josh Steffen, Brad Anderson and I ran 5:26 or 5:27 depending on which of us started the watch at the right time.

Then a one mile easy cool down.
