Ran from Bicknell back to Torrey again. This time I just stayed on the main road. I warmed up for 3 miles and then did 3x800's with a 2 min recovery between. Just ran these sets on the open road on my way back. I tried to do them on the most level section of road but there was a few rollers. Hit the first on a 4:55 pace as I rounded the turn and dropped to the river. The second was the most flat one and I hit it at 5:00 pace. Before the third set I did my recovery back up the road to Bicknell to lengthen the flat section for the last set. I hit it at around 5:05 pace. With the altitude all the sets felt like my lungs were going to explode but the legs felt pretty much in control. Finished up hitting the rest of the run at sub 6:30 pace because the legs were all wound up and I had a good tailwind coming off the bench into Torrey. We are headed home today and it will be nice to get there and be able to have a couple days of regular life before the craziness of the weekend. |
