Medium Workout day I warmed up to Paul's house. Picked him up then ran to the start of the First Dam run course and began the fartlek workout. We went 8x's 3min on 1min off. Mostly. We got pretty distracted talking and ram some longer hard intervals and some longer rest intervals. It was sure nice to have company for a workout. It was also nice to be able to keep up with Paul. That has never happened before...in my short memory. Pace for the hard 3mins (goal was 5:50-6:00 pace on flat terrain)
- 6:02 (slight uphill)
- 6:00 (slight uphill)
- 5:58 (same)
- 5:56 (big up then flat)
- 5:25 (flat than big down)
- 5:32 (slight down)
- 5:55 (opps too slow for slight down)
- 5:40 (flat, but some dogs wanted to race so I got carried away)
I dropped Paul off and then ran the Planet Walk to get to 12 miles. T-1:22:48 (6:54) 159
