I ran a 1000m time trial today in 2:43, which is not too bad considering that it was somewhat windy, and I feel like the wind really affected me as I was running hard enough that even just a little more effort expended at the beginning while fighting the wind really sucked the energy out of me. By the time I hit 500m I felt dead, but I kept fighting and was able to recover just a little over the last 200m. 200 splits were 31, 32, 33, 34, 33 (2:10 for 800). I was shooting for a 2:40, so I was not too far off pace. Sasha ran 2:12 for 800, starting 200m after me and then drafting behind me. Afterwards I finished what I eventually decided was a little over 10 miles, so I am calling the run 10.1 miles.
