Less than acceptable sleep last night, so I didn't roll out of bed for a run this morning.  Took a quick nap after work and then hit the trails and track as the sun was setting this evening.  Two and a quarter miles warmup at 7:45 pace and then 2X200, 1X800, 1X400, 2X200 - all at goal mile pace (5:28, so 41 on the 200s, 82 on the 400, 2:44 on the 800) with a minute rest.  I hit all the 200s between 40 and 42, the 800 at 2:46 and the 400 at 79.  First time back on the track in almost a month.  Racing the mile on Saturday morning, so wanted to work on pacing.  Good workout.

Nice work - good luck on Saturday - looking for 5:28 then?

Right - 5:28. Travis is looking for a top 5 finish under 4:50, but the first week of school and heat of the day practices have him really physically and mentally drained right now. This is a really fun event that we always look forward to, so its all good. I also will be competing in the Hamstring Hundred at the end of the mile heats. Top 6 hundred meter guys and gals from summer track line it up and battle for unique gifts... and try not to snap a hammy.
