Workout with the Black Sheep.  After a 1 mile warmup we did 800m of speed changes and then the meat of the workout designed by our own Bruce Herman.  Here are the results:

1 x 1 mile (5:55); 4 x 400 m (84, 83, 81,81); 2 x 800 (2:50; 2:45); 8 x 200 (all at 39, one at 38); and then another 1 x 1 mile (5:34).  The recoveries were minimal within each set (15-30 seconds) and about a minute between sets.

Josh was blowing everyone off the track and was a half lap ahead of me the whole time. I ran with a guy named Kevin who is new to the Black Sheep this week, a former DIII runner from New York.  It helped to have someone to push with, particularly on the last mile.

One mile of cool down followed at the end.

That looks like a pretty tough speed workout.
