Hard workout today. I only had a salad for Thanksgiving so I stuffed myself last night/this morning instead. Definitely regretted that. 1600m, broken up into 400m @3k pace, 200m easy, 400m @ 3k pace, 200m easy, 400m @ mile pace. No rest between repeats, 4 minute active rest between sets. Would try to do as many as I can. I didn't expect the workout to be as tough as it is, but that's my own fault. On the 200m I was hitting under 7 minute pace for all of them(on one I even hit 5:50 pace! Geez). Ran a 4:55 on the first 1600m, a 5:05 on the second one, and ran the first 1k but felt pretty spent, so rested for a couple minutes extra. Then I did the last 400m that I missed in 65. Averaged 67s on the mile pace and 72 on the 3k pace. Windy out today. Did a 150m sprint in 21 in my trainers and some 150m strides. CD for 10. Wasn't feeling great but I hit the paces I wanted to. 50 miles for the week, with only 5 days of running.
