Evening: Big workout 8x1 miles with 60 sec. rest. This workout is no joke. It was probably harder than it should have really been for me today due to DLS (Dead Leg Syndrome). I wish I would have felt better. Mentally, I did very well in not getting down about the slower pace. 2 mile warm-up around high school area 5:38, 5:32, 5:32, 5:38, 5:38, 5:37, 5:37, 5:23 2 mile cooldown Avg run pace with rests 6:52 Avg interval pace 5:34 Not my greatest workout in terms of even splits, but because the winds were high and I was feeling like crap I decided to run based on feel rather than kill myself running solo to hit splits. I rarely looked at the watch. The last one I ran the last lap hard, otherwise on pace the same as the other ones. On a side note the high school track is way slower than the middle school track. It's soft, but too soft! It probably saved my feet and legs some abuse though.
