Afternoon: 5.16 miles in town loop 7:03 avg pace Evening: 9.23 miles - 2 mile warm-up then [4x200 w/200m jog recovery 35, 36, 33, 34], then [2x400 w/400m jog 71, 71], [1x800 w/800m jog rest 2:26], [2x400 w/400m jog 71, 69], finally [4x200 w/200 jog 33,34,33,31], dragged my legs around for a 2 mile cool down. The workout was pretty much identical to what I did 2 weeks ago, but I'm running higher mileage and have more workouts layered on top of each other now. Today, was really windy from the north but cool out. So I think I'm doing well to run these paces with a full recovery. The 800 wasn't at goal pace of 2:20, but it's going to take some practice to dig that deep. I know my speed endurance is weak right now, but I hope to improve that in later weeks. In all reality my speed endurance probably won't come back to full form until I start racing some short track stuff like the mile, 3K, and 5K races.
