10 Mile PR 57:22

Personal:

I am married and have two wonderful kids, 14 and 10.  I've been running since 1982.  I never get "basic" injuries.  I always get the real nasty career threatening kind, like stress fracture of the sacrum, ganglion cyst clamping  down on my peroneal nerve.

Tonight did one of the toughest workouts I've ever done.  5x600m-400m.  run 600m at 5:30 pace, 200m jog at 8:00 pace, then 400m at 5:30 pace, then 400m jog at 8:00 pace to make 1 mile total for each repeat.  Times weren't the fastest, but legs aren't the freshest (2:10,1:23,2:09,1:26,2:13,1:25,2:08,1:22,2:08,1:23).  Did 4 mile warmup at pretty effortless 7:00 pace, then 1 mile cooldown afterward.  Today during lunch, ran 3.25 miles from home up through Howard subdivision and back in a semiquick 22:16.  First mile in 7:10, last mile in 6:26.  Temp much cooler today, although still warm on the track, 78 and not as humid.

Wow! Great workout. I might have to give that a try sometime.
