Good start to July training. Warmed up 2.75. Training Cole for nationals in a few weeks. Today was a strength based workout. 2 sets of 4 x 400 with 60 seconds recovery. 400 meters between sets. Set 1 at 3k pace. Set 2 at 1500 pace. We hit consistent 82s on the first set. 78, 78, 79, 78 for set 2. I did 2 more in the last set at 81, 79. I haven’t run sub 80 in a long time. Cole wasn’t used to short recovery. But, he handled it. He struggled a bit mentally on the last two. But, he kept the pace. 1.25 mile cool down.
