Too much yardwork and ladder climbing etc on Sunday resulted in tight right hammy, so did no running Sun or Mon.  Got back at it this morning with an easy mile on the track and then 4X300 easy (63, 61, 60, 59) and 2X200 moderate (35, 34) to test the leg - no issues.  Another easy mile around the school cooldown.

Evening workout in the neighborhood.  One mile warmup, then 6X2 min on 1 min off.  Finished up with mile and a half back to the house. Good chat with Trav this evening about the visiting runners from the UK that are working out in Tallahassee for a month.  Once a week they are hitting the track at Trav's school to take advantage of the trails immediately adjacent - very cool.  2008 Olympic 1500 meter guy/miler Andy Baddeley and steeple/5K guy Mark Draper are in town along with a few runners from Zap Fitness out of North Carolina.  Trav watched their workout Tues morning when they did two sets of 6 laps followed by 4X200 at mile race pace.  Each of the sets of 6 laps were generally neg split from 70 to 66 and then the 200s were 30, 30, 29, 28 for the first set and 28, 28, 28, 26 for the second...  3:47 simulated mile.  Baddeley's PR is 3:49.  Trav said Draper bailed out on the 5th lap of the second set looking pretty rough.  He got to chat with them quite a bit and looks forward to seeing them again next week.
