AM - 8 Middleton. Run went very well this morning. Best run I've had since before being sick. Didn't time it, but from the clock at home, the 8 was in about 55 minutes - not the most stellar thing in the world, but I just felt very good. (Stratus red 300) afternoon - 12x200's. Started with 1 1/2 mile warmup and then got into the workout. I didn't really have a clear goal going into it (which is never a good thing), but I hadn't done 2's in ... forever (?) so I just wanted to do as many as I could at a quick pace. I soon found that I really don't have a quick pace anymore! But I ran them as hard as I could. Pretty much they were 34's with a couple 33's and then a couple 35's toward the end; then the wind really picked up and slowed me to 36's on the last two - with a 200 jog (1 minute approx.) between each one. It was pretty difficult. But a good 10K style workout as far as the demands on the body go. Ended with another 1 1/2 of grass loops. (Precision 345.2)
