Ran to Paul's house and we ran together up the University's track. We met James there and James and I did 5x1000m with 200m recovery. I wasn't sure the pace I wanted to go so we just took off and did what felt right. I originally thought that 5:50 to 5:55 mile pace would be fine. We ended up going much faster than that. We went
3:31 (5:32 mile pace)
3:35 (5:39 mile pace)
3:35 (5:39 mile pace)
3:34 (5:39 mile pace)
3:20 (5:14 mile pace)
I felt pretty good today. Legs felt fresh and ready to go. I did get some lactic acid buildup by the last 2, with the last one burning pretty good. I was very pleased with the workout.
Paul finished with his at about the same time and we ran back home at an easy pace.
