STRIDLEK WORKOUT

3 (6 x 40") w/ 4-5' jogs between sets and jogs back to starting line. 23' up/20' down

Overall average pace better than last week with another set and the stride paces were faster. Felt great on the warmup and solid throughout. Always a deceptive workout. It's never hard to complete, but it does wear you out in ways you wouldn't expect (I'm pretty sleep now at 9:30).

Good progress the last 7-10 days in making my way back.

Great workout!

I like the workout. It isn't hard to complete, but it does make you tired. The workout progresses by adding tags of 1' then 2', up to 5' at 5k pace after a 5' jog after the third set. The 5' tag burns a bit at the end.
